Whats with all the AMD rumors here lately? First a possible merger with ATI and now this? I find this very strange since AMD has just committed to an expansion in Dresden.

Either they have just started up a printing press for $100 bills at their new fab or all these rumors are purposely started as a means to exude a greater degree of public confidence. This in the short term could help prop up their stock price which has been faltering here as of late.

I just find it kind of odd how a corporation that is barely in the black after 11 years is going to be able to finance all of these very expensive and risky ventures.

EDIT: I didn't notice that there was already a thread for this. I posted this there as well.

Just wondering if a mod can delete this thread.... no point in having two, and this one was 2nd.
