Thanks for the article, Paul. A few key quotes:

However, Gwennap said the decision was preceded by conflict between Raza and his boss, Sanders. "He's had trouble fitting in there, and there have been a lot of conflicts between the two," he said. "Raza had trouble getting programs approved or budgets signed. If this happens too many times, a person can get tired of it."

Guess this confirms that there was tension between Atiq Raza and Jerry "Ape Fetish" Sanders.

Indeed, with its PC competitors in a dither, Intel's only worry is that it will look more and more like a microprocessor monopoly to government regulators.

No problemo. According to the AMD hopeful, IF_AMD can execute well, Athlon should make Intel look much less like a so-called monopoly. And IF_AMD fails to execute, Jerry "Is Santa Clara Valhalla?" Sanders can once again fall back on his 800-lb. gorilla theories when he goes crying to the FTC, DOJ, and CNBC.
