In memory of My Grandfather, who passed away some forty years ago, used to sing: Hey diddle diddle the cat n the fiddle the cow jumped over the moon the little dog laughed to see such sport and the dish ran away with the spoon When the Arab consortium bought into AMD's business, some were able to conclude an unpatriotic act had occurred. The patriot wrapped in the flag can reach any conclusion, ... just never mind the fact that the smaller sibling (AMD) using 10% of the resources, able to deliver a superior product is none the less marked for failure having the rug jerked by a bully. That little fact (moon) is easily jumped with a flourish by those cowed by the fiddling Cat (Intel), diddle diddle. Others laugh, in disbelief, at the naked emperor. The dish and spoon odd couple; AMD spurned, gladly accepts the extended hand from those (Abudabi's) with a clearer perspective. They see, AMD is a sweet dish compared to Intel. Intel, able to deliver 1.1x performance (most of the time) with only 10x resources, some bribes and just a little arm twisting. YMMV
