>> So they don't any money for the time being but getting the consumer to accept your brand is an incredible achievement;

I don't think the retail consumer pays a lot of attention to component brands. They buy on price. The true achievement is that Intel is making $ billions in profits, while AMD is desperately slashing prices and incurring $billions in losses.

Driving their own company into bankruptcy is usually not considered an achievement. But then supporters of AMD hold its management to a much lower standard than a normal profitable company.

T2, > Just walk into any Best Buy. I bet about 50% are with AMD.

Been there, done that, samo samo.

Sightings at Circuit City/Best Buy/Fry's/Costco have been reported ad nauseum, as if that ever directly correlated to overall marketshare or profits.
