Right now amd's best role is as mediacenters. I've found nothing as effective as a 780g mb + chip for a cheap mediacenter. Not even close actually on the intel side. But its still a niche market. Sent via BlackBerry

OK, I missed that point & was assuming you meant if no one buys AMD despite lack luster products that we'd loose them! AMD would not be in trouble if they weren't terrible managing business, and if they had a product worth buying besides ATI products (who they might yet run into the ground). Same poor management issues killed Commodore back in the day and they had great products. Stan Zaske wrote: > You lost me at it not being an issue of a one vendor market.
