Re: "a Dell win by AMD would be huge for AMD as it would dismantle the firewall currently separating AMD and the corporate world"

Just like the AMD win at Compaq vaulted AMD into the corporate world - right?

Tiny dumps AMD for first love Intel
Love affair didn't last


By Mike Magee, 03/07/01 08:56:13 BST

THE TINY GROUP appears to have jilted the AMD Athlon and fallen head over heels with its original love Intel, according to sources close to the firm.

Tiny, which is a major force on UK high streets and also has a presence in the US, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan and China, caused something of a stir when it switched from its all-Intella line to include the AMD Athlon range too.

But insiders tell us that at heart the folks in the know hankered after chip monogamy, and their old sweetheart La Intella, and it didn't take very much sweet talking for Tiny to ditch AMD and embrace their old love yet again.
Or something like that. Really, we're sure the move was made as part of a strategic business decision and if anyone from Tiny cares to contact us we'd just love to put its side of the affair. µ
