GREAT post, Kevy. So apparently it is volume.

One thing I thought to be funny was the most recent Intel quarterly profit report (Released July 19, second quarter data).

Intel reported sales of $8.0 billion and a profit of $885 million, just over an 11% profit margin. This data was considered disappointing as compared to the second quarter of last year, with sales of $9.2 billion, and a profit of $2.0 billion, a 21.7% profit margin. While the disappointment is partly sales, the biggest disappointment is an almost 60% reduction in profit.
