Re: You need to develop a BRAND by marketing your product

Sorry Kash, but what we've seen doesn't support your post. When Intel had bing-bing-bing-ding echoing from every TV and radio day and night, but AMD had higher speed numbers on their chips, Intel lost market share while AMD ASPs rose.

When Intel put high mhz numbers on the crappy performing P4, AMD ASPs dropped.

AMD now has part numbers that reflect their relative performance, and that will do more for them than $1 billion worth of "hip" advertising.

kash, The AMD brand's progress has no doubt been hampered by Jerry since he is a classic empire builder and micromanager. Any thiung he is incompetent in is not done as he will not delegate that task to competent others...like hire a major marketing company and let them run with the ball.
