How is that funny?
What if you worked for AMD and lost that much? I don't think you would be to proud of your hourly wage drop.
Maybe just because you like Intel more, doesn't mean you have to laugh at AMD's mistakes.

They will bounce back.

Try to understand guys, we consumers NEED AMD to survive. If Intel had no competition, we'd all be using 386's with 16 megs of memory right now. Competition spawns innovation.

AMD is in a better position now than they were before they released the Athlon64. How? Four letters...

DELL

They didn't have Dell selling their stuff before, now, they selling them almost as fast as AMD can make processors.

Expect Barcelona to first come out in 3rd Qtr this year. It won't give AMD as long an advantage as they had when the Athlon64 first came out, but it will take a little while for Intel to catch up.
