>AMD has yet to come close to recovering the costs of aquiring NexGen plus the losses they suffered for years afterwards.< The losses AMD suffered were not from what they did, but from what they did not do. They did not embrace licensing the 6x86 processor, which could have provided them with the production volumes for a proper K6 launch, and they fumbled the process technology ball terribly in the early years of the K6, both at 0.30-micron and at 0.25-micron.
