        That is not good news :( AMD was a cheaper option to Intel. Once this sale goes through Intel will control most of the market share and this will help them increase prices even more :( :( "Fortunately I had given him a false name" said Ukridge "Why ?" I cried amazed "Just an ordinary business precaution" he replied

                          Its definetely not good news if that's true. Its never a good news for the consumer when there's a lack of choice. Also now Intel can name its price and features. Regards, Tiruvan

                              Isn't there a monopolies issue here ? Since both companies are US based I suspect the SEC may want a little chat with Intel... Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                                Wow. I don't know how they do it, but this website is showing us Saturday's news today! (April 10, 2004 is still four days away - or three days away if you are in India.) On a side note, it looks like the articles are written by amateurs. Take a look at this weak article on outsourcing: http://www.techtree.com/techtree/jsp/showstory.jsp?storyid=5134[^]. The author seems to have a pretty shallow understanding of economics.

                                    Not that I haven't watched my share in the quiet private of late night TV, but I honestly had no idea what googling on 'lirpa' would uncover. :-O BW CP Member Homepages

                                      I thought it was funny that they represented Intel with a person wearing a BLACK (color normally associated with a villain) suit and AMD with a WHITE (color normally associated with a hero) suit...:laugh: Steve
