I found the following on the Compaq thread: Message 15811647 AMD, Dell Dealing On Mobile Chips (05/16/01, 8:12 p.m. ET) By Edward F. Moltzen, CRN Advanced Micro Devices has cut a deal with Dell Computer Corp.—the last major PC vendor not using its processors—to use its new mobile chips in laptops, according to a financial analyst. Eric Ross, who covers AMD (stock: AMD) for Thomas WeiselPartners, San Francisco, said the deal is on track to be announced next month. Such a deal would be significant for AMD, as Dell (stock: DELL) had been the last major PC maker to have an exclusive OEM agreement with chip giant Intel Corp. (stock: INTC). In fact, barely a week ago, AMD chairman Jerry Sanders told analysts at a Merrill Lynch conference in New York that he still thought it was unlikely that Dell would ever use AMD chips. But Ross says the two companies now have an agreement.
