Yougang,

I to am quite disappointed in that AMD is selling its Communications division. I think Jerry must go. I realize that the microprocessor division requires significant resources but why sell a profitable division. I have listened to every quarterly conference call for over 3yrs now and that division has held its own almost every quarter.
Jerry has tried in some of the calls to put the blame in the non processor divisions but when question directly he almost always admitted that they were break even or profitable on there own.
