    AMD: Chipping Away at Intel [view article]
    Ockham Research is far from anonymous. They have a website, contact info available on that website and fully describe what they do and what their philosophy is. Just bother to click on one of the links on the left, and you will get all you need.

    As to the article, I don't see that they are saying "all is right" - but more that "it is getting better", and that they see price appreciation opportunities. Instead of bashing them, feel free to write your own artciles refuting their analysis....

    The anonymous author sounds more like an AMD sympathizer than someone with any knowledge.
    Anon. may be looking for reasons to feel hopeful about a losing situation. However, it is a disgrace that this article may influence others to throw money on a stock that is on a downward spiral.

    I definitely agree with this article. I see absolutely no reason why AMD is not trading at about $8.00 or $9.00 like it was very close to doing only a few weeks ago. I see this price as a huge value stock, with some amazing potential even in the short term as it will shoot back up very soon I believe. I will be buying the stock come Monday. Reply

    With all respect I don't see AMD growing up when they don't really have new product to offer in the near future ... they have spent all its resources trying to merge ATI and not doing all the research they need to match Intel and even NVIDIA. Reply

    The 2.2% gain is relative to the pie not to AMD's initial portion of it.

    Think about this very hard and then get back to me.

    Eagerly awaiting your reply,

    Smart1 is saying that AMD gained a small amount of market share by selling parts below cost, as evidenced by the fact that they lost hundreds of millions of dollars. It isn't sustainable. I don't think he's making a statement about the stock price, valuation, markets, etc. Reply

    Jenn - If you can't do simple math don't add such sarcastic comments.
    If AMD gains 2.2% starting from a much smaller number that will represent a small fraction of Intel's share (a much larger number). Innumeracy in America is frightening. This problem is compound by such people having strong opinions about other's idiocy.

    My God, where to start...

    1) How is it possible for "half of AMD's growth" of 2.2% be at the expense of Intel when Intel's loss was just 0.7 percent?

    2) Why does the author fail to mention that on a quarter-to-quarter basis, AMD just LOST market share to Intel? In fact, from Q4 '07 to Q1 '08 AMD's share dropped from 14.1% to 13%, while Intel's climbed from 78.5% to 79.7%.

    3) Why do people think that they can make something sound bigger by expressing it as a percent? Only an idiot or someone catering to idiots would say "3700% bigger" rather than "38 times." Anyway that's not even the correct number since, as of today, Intel's market cap is closer to 34 times that of AMD ( = 109B/3.2B). Sorry I mean "3300% bigger."

    4) When exactly will "macro-economic&q... forces improve so dramatically as to push AMD's shares from $5 to $12? In 2008 with a projected earnings loss of $1.44/share? Or maybe in 2009 with a loss of just $0.63/share?

    Smart 1's comment is real example of economics idiot. If you are so sure of what u said, then, go shorting AMD with all you can. Then see what happen.... Any listed company, as long as its mainstream business is running, all has its residue value. Or else, many
    listed companies worldwide would have collapsed already.AMD share price is so low becuse market overacted, panic. Just like the oil price is so high because speculators manipulated, markets overacted...

    This is a joke, right...??? AMD is virtually bankrupt. If there was any share gain (which I really doubt), it came at the expense of losing huindreds of millions every quarter. How could anyone possibly write a headline like this one given that. Do a little anallysis of AMD's cash vs their burn rate and see what you think..... Reply

    Intel's Atom Chip To Power Future iPhone [view article]
    If Apple were to move to one of the recently-announced/rel... low-power chips for iPhone, it would much more likely be the Tegra than the Atom. Much more efficient, and better suited for the visuals that are one of the iPhone's stronger selling points. Would all depend on getting the OSX code subset working on Tegra. Reply

    Tech's Most Popular CEOs [view article]
    Folks - Check out this website www.thesmartpro.org which is pretty much the same without the unwanted details. How many employees want to know the approval rating of the CEO before deciding to accept the offer?

    Smartpro is neat, it classifies the responses under categories that are important and relevant to employees. It’s free and not for profit!

    It does not have millions of dollars to promote like Glassdoor but is quietly aiming to provide newletters, jobs, reviews, ratings, industry benchmarks et al. All for free.

    check it out at www.thesmartpro.org

    Feeney seems to make the deduction "it is possible, therefore it must be true", i.e., that because future Atom processors will be able to power Iphones, Apple will choose them to do so.

    It is not like there is an inherent advantage in an x86 processor (unless you want to run Windows, which Apple clearly don't), which many socalled "analysts" seem to think. It was the same when Nvidia announced the Tegra APX 2500 and CSK 600/650 processors. The news seemed to focus more on their not being able to run Windows XP than on technical merits.
