More "AMD is gonna die"

Hmm . . how long have I been hearing that ? Gosh, just about ever since AMD existed, if I remember correctly.

And it'll continue for the rest of the century, I guess.

AMD has already been in worse shape, and now it has graphics potential to boost it along as well.

I don't know, but I'm guessing that AMD is going to burst the shell again in a year or two, just like it did with the Athlon range that rattled Intel's cage so much. I think AMD is going to give us a really good CPU with integrated graphics in the coming years, and that CPU is going to give Intel a hard time again.

The only frustrating thing about AMD is the fact that it screws up so regularly. But it has survived dire straights before, and I don't think that its current potential puts it in a worse situation than it was seven years ago.

In any case, I've heard "AMD is gonna die" for decades now. AMD is still here, stronger than before. Still got problems, but still here nonetheless.
