The annoucement will be interesting. Particularly where MOT benefits from the symbiosis. Could have something to do with copper. You sold INTC...? Beware the wrath of P.E.!

Dale,

A little CPU history for you.

MOT built a better product than intel when we talk about the 68000 and the 8086. However, Intel was FIRST to market and won IBM. MOT is even worse than AMD when it comes to wanting to kill INTC. The problem is MOT could do it. They tried with the PPC, but that was the wrong approach.

I can see AMD and MOT collaborating until AMD is out of cash and MOT then scooping them (after DRESDEN is equipped).
