I would want Intel to take over the x86 market ... At this point I'd have to agree with ex-AMD engineer, Cliff Maier who's currently working with Apple with his statement of "AMD sucks". AMD has no chance of actually competing in the market if they don't get rid of their awful management and apathetic engineering team. AMD only knows how to keep floundering left and right each time they release a new product. Let Intel have the x86 market completely as I couldn't care less about AMD's processors anymore. In fact I think it would be a good thing that Intel gets all of it's revenue on that market as we can potentially see better processors at a sooner pace. I'm all for it.

(This sounded very fanboy-ish but people have to ask themselves if AMD is really competing ?)


I wouldn't go that far, if it wasn't for AMD we would probably still be using a variation of the Netburst architecture with Intel still chasing the 10ghz barrier. :P
Then again, if AMD was actually even remotely competitive it wouldn't have taken Intel 3-4 years for an actual viable upgrade to my Core i7 3930K. *Still waiting/first world problems*

I would like for AMD to chase the performance crown again, AMD has done more good than harm when it was *actually* competitive.

I would go that far because since when have AMD actually delivered in the past 8 years ? 

Your right about AMD's 3 entire good years being good thing for the industry but Intel won't ever screw up again like that. AMD have done nothing but humiliate themselves like no one's business for the past 8 years. The team that made the Athlon 64's and the first opteron's are all gone and have moved on to greener pastures like Apple.

I think AMD is finished for the most part. No one believes in AMD anymore. The market and their business clients just don't see any future in AMD. 

I find it sad that they have to sell their chips at a loss ...
