McJimmie - Re: "Seems like IBM is carrying the torch. I wonder if they will buy AMD should AMD go under..."

I posted a rumor of an IBM investment in AMD about 5 months ago - and that has not proven to be correct.

IBM is too smart to BUY another loser - I think Lotus taught them that lesson.

And Lotus doesn't have the HUGE FIXED OVERHEAD that AMD's fabs have.
