Preview of 2001 from ZDNet (thanks to Paranoid on JC's BBS jc-news.com ) Despite great success in consumer PCs, AMD's chips have yet to find their way into corporate PCs produced by name-brand PC makers, such as IBM (NYSE: IBM) or Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HWP). And doing so won't be easy. "Corporate is where the volume and the money is," said Mike Feibus, principal analyst at Mercury Research. "AMD hasn't managed yet to convince corporate PC product line managers," he said. "If AMD knocks down that domino, the customers might fall more easily." The corporate platform will be based around the new AMD 760 chip set and forthcoming processor core, code-named Palomino, due to arrive at 1.33GHz in the first quarter, according to AMD. AMD expects PC makers to target corporations with workstations and servers based on a dual-processor version of the 760, the 760MP. zdnet.com
