Oh my this one isnt pretty. Intel Corp has just announced that their company net revenue has dropped 77 percent for the quarter. They are projecting a pretty respectable 4th quarter but dont offer up a heck of a lot of explanation on the huge drop for this quarter:

Intel (Nasdaq:INTC - news) said that net income before acquisition-related costs fell to $655 million, or 10 cents a share, from $2.89 billion, or 43 cents, a year ago, which included 7 cents a share in acquisition-related costs. Sales declined 25 percent to $6.5 billion from $8.73 billion.

The AMD earnings conference is scheduled for tomorrow.

And just wait until AMD reports. I predict and actual loss (ie. negative profit). Doesn't help when Gateway (among the first) dumps all your products because they aren't attractive anymore. AMD is going to be devastated by this downturn. No money reserves, almost no margin, declining market share, sharply reduced sales, unable to spend on R&D because they aren't making money. AMD = hammered.

Also remember that 1) everyone expected crappy revenue, 2) they met the street exactly at 10 cents/share, 3) they still profited $605 million...when most other companies are dipping into cash reserves (if they have them) to meet payrolls and capital expenditures.

Steve, I almost fell off my chair when I read on your page:
net revenue has dropped 77 percent for the quarter.

The article says profit fell 77%, but revenue fell "only" 25%. BIG DIFFERNECE!

It's because everybody has a damn computer, and a lot of businesses can get by with what they have...and it's a damn recession, so people don't want to buy computers.

In a couple years, processors are going to be fast enough to be able to handle real-time voice recognition, and then sales to businesses will take off again.
