I think they just devalued there graphics side of the business. I sure hope they got some money for tons of marketing to get the word out and build the brand name.

I feel the oposite. The people Ive dealt with that really dont know much about modern PCs think AMD is better then Intel because of the K8 days. Intel has only had the lead for the past few years. Plus AMD has been making great advances lately in the value market.
I personally though they would have stopped the ATI name a long time ago. Surprised it took this long.
