Liked this one from Ashlee Vance: AMD expects more co-processors to start popping up for its chips in the coming years to help out with tasks such as Java, TCP/IP and SSL processing. The company's open specifications tend to make it easier for third parties to create products around AMD's gear than is the case for Intel, although Intel does enjoy a large partner network thanks to its massive market share.

"This is a really interesting way to handle the memory hierarchy and it's in stark contrast to the brute force method (used by Intel)."

Shared L2 is "brute force"? :)

I want to hear "higher performance", not "interesting" and 'elegant'.
