I would buy more if I didn't just buy a house.. I like to do the opposite of what the market's doing before the market does the opposite of what it's doing now.

That's assuming it ever will do the opposite. You can find lots of extremely cheap tech stocks that haven't bounced back to anywhere near their price during the .com boom.

Just because it's cheap doesn't necessarily make it a good buy.

Exactly. You never know when the bottom is.

Better to buy platinum for the price of gold, than to buy dirt for the price of shit.

I remember people arguing with me that the AMD/ATI merger was a good idea.

Taking two shit companies and combining them is a terrible idea. It's not 3+3=6, it's 3x3=9.

75% of all mergers fail to deliver any stockholder value.

Isn't AMD delivering with their new ATI chips? I heard they have some good mobile chips coming out too. They still have some server market, no?

The only thing they really need work with is the desktop market.

I don't follow benchmarks like I used to. Someone care to correct me?

I never really understood why AMD has tanked lately. Sure, it's not the Athlon days but they've still got decent marketshare, no?

you think? i can't recall that many manufacturers use AMD CPU's.

in the corporate world, i'd say a work station with an AMD CPU is almost non-existent.

I was just in Best Buy today and saw a lot of Turions in laptops.

First Energy (where I work) uses a lot of HP servers and the majority of what we are getting are AMD opteron powered.
