zdnet.co.uk You've heard all the hype from the Intel camp, but tomorrow you can hear what AMD has to say exclusively on ZDNet UK News It's not often Jerry Sanders speaks to the press. When he does, he's usually rushed off by a swarm of PR bodies before he has a chance to say something controversial. However, ZDNet's editor, Richard Barry, had the opportunity to sit down with Sanders at a luncheon in Hannover on Monday to discuss AMD's processor roadmap, the mighty Intel and what challenges lie ahead in its attempt to crack the corporate arena in the battle for the server/workstation market. In a frank Eye2Eye interview, Sanders responds to comments made by Michael Dell to Barry last month about compatibility. He also sets out the company's long-term goals and explains why Itanium, Intel's long awaited 64-bit architecture, has presented AMD with a golden opportunity. Sony's PlayStation2 also gets a mention, as does that X-Box from Microsoft. A clear picture of the dirty tricks of the industry are also laid out, offering a unique insight behind the scenes of what Sanders and his team are up against in fighting the "800lb gorilla". What do you think? Tell the Mailroom and read what others have to say.
