AndyGrave,
Paul was buying the time he was repeating his copper contamination FUD. Elmer continues to post that AMD is having yield problems while selling puts in which he would lose a lot of money if a yield problem is revealed to be true.
If things are so rosey at Intel or so BAD at AMD, why wouldn't these Intel employees, contractors, and retirees be taking a bearish position on AMD instead of betting that AMD's stock price will not reflect the content of their FUD?
Intel has some problems which continue to increase in size and are demonstrated on Internet message boards and hardware review sites on a regular basis.
Otellini is AMD's best friend. As long as the same management team that brought you Merced, Rambus, cameras, and microscopes continue to write themselves and their buddies huge option grants, I will agree with them that AMD IS a better investment. I can't wait to see the numbers on Intel trying to make TVs!
