It looks like the retail channel likes AMD. I have a feeling that Intel is
running low on cash these days, and it can't afford to advertise as much as
it once did.

I thought executive pays were a fixed cost of this business? Sort of like
buying fab equipment, R&D, etc.?

No, not fixed at all. When the company survives, they do well. When the
