amd ati merger

Quote from ginux:

AMD will catch up to Intel's CURRENT level with the purchase but Intel is going to innovate harder and leave AMD eating dust.

The bigger issue is the mainstream computer. AMD/ATI could have a stout package of CPU, chipset, and integrated video chip to power 90% of "average" computer users' PCs.

The onboard video chip is one area where there still is some favorable profit margin.
 
"7:39 NVDA Nvidia to soon provide SLI support to Intel - Digitimes (20.54 )

Digitimes reports now that it has the resources of AMD behind, ATI Technologies (ATYT) is confident that it will be able to produce more compact, faster GPUs while being to reach the channel more effectively, and the graphics chip maker has indicated its rival is now standing alone in the market. However, industry sources have indicated that Nvidia will soon announce that it will allow support of its SLI technology on Intel's (INTC) chipset platforms, with the two companies already having met to discuss the partnership."
