this kinda sux :( let's hope VIA sue Intel for monopoly and buys out AMD with the money they won : yes i know i am retarded lol

[Witchdoctor]

More likely Apple, so they can start making their own chips.

Welcome to America where you can leverage for more than your worth. I hope they dont sell out, but from the looks of it they will sell off patends first. Witch is worse than selling out, as they will be hollowed inside....

[MaadDaawg]

yeah, they had setbacks, like drivers that sucked

Look for fewer and fewer options for AMD boards in the near future

[Witchdoctor]

kick ass GPU's is the only thing keeping them alive

[DOM]

They should of never got ATI now there going to kill them along with cpu department

[Witchdoctor]

Yea going head to head with Intel and nVidia day in and day out is a brutal proposition

One might say suisidal..........................

Yeah two opponents instead of one.

However, you guys are missing something.

First of all JP Morgan is an invest firm. they are looking for backers, if someone wants to buy them right out, that is an option of course, it is true of any IPO.

So two things are possible here.

Better financial revenue for AMD based on increased profits.
New ownership of AMD.

the latter could be good or bad.

Imagine if some Chinese company bought them out. You would have Intel clones at half the cost.
the could be as bad at running a company as AMD has been.



Apple will not buy them. they only use cheap Chinese parts. not fairly priced german ones.
