Spokeshave -

How is it possible that you have such a deep understanding of the confidence and expectations of all who follow AMD? By what magic have you gleaned all of our innermost thoughts? Please share you great and powerful secrets with us mere mortals.

I can only go by the posts the AMD faithful make here. The suspension of disbelief is not healthy for an open mind.

I hereby decree that there will be no further discussion of anything that *might* happen.

Discussions of what might come is a good thing. What is not good is to accept, as a foregone conclusion, the performance of a company that has heretofore failed to perform. Failure is not a crime and it is no guarantee of future failure. AMD could perform in the future, it is not impossible. However, a reasonable person must allow their expectations to be biased by past performance. Failure to do so is intellectual dishonesty.

Dang. I can't believe that I typed that with a straight face.

I don't believe you did.
