Re: I found NO MENTIOn of goodwill writedowns

That's because AMD didn't defer any expenses as goodwill when they merged with Nexgen.

There wasn't any claimed, so there wasn't any goodwill to writedown.

Only NT (later had to take a $19 Billion charge in a single quarter), Intel, and other companies that drastically overpay for dot bombs and try to hide the costs from their quarterly reports have to assume big "goodwill" entries.
