Intel Corp (INTC)

119, I don't find much of a point arguing the finer points about TMTA stock with someone whose rose colored glasses are so thick that they forgot what red looked like.

"Crayola, I mean Centrino"

Compliment or just a bad insult? I can't quite tell.

"please explain this"

You're telling me that someone could have used my screen name without permission?!? If you're talking about the Internet, then I am shocked! <G>

"Your statement that Transmeta will never be profitable unless they achieve this goal by the end of the year is pure speculation."

The only serious statement in your post. It is speculation, by the way, as if it weren't self-evident. Of course, I don't have the facts in front of me to prove otherwise, but TMTA is losing 10-20% of shareholder equity every frickin' quarter! It doesn't take a mathematician to tell you that they have to stop the leakage in the very near term. If they remain unprofitable by the end of the year, what they hell will they have to turn themselves around after that?

Smarten up, buddy. TMTA needs those design wins, like that Sharp notebook you linked to in your response. It sounds like HP's TC1000 and other designs are doing very well, which hopefully has a short term impact. If it doesn't, then I don't know what will. If TMTA still looks rosy to you at the end of the year, and if they are still losing money despite the design wins and Astro later on, then you're welcome to be the sole shareholder, because I think the rest of Wall Street will be bailing out, myself included.
