And Amato claimed: "We aren't losing market share at all." µ
So, what do ya think? Can Barcelona take on the big bad guy, Conroe? I know, I know, this was so much talked about that people are geting sick of it, the only thing missing is Barcelona to actually make a live apearance.
Year over year, CPU's market grew by 8%. So your saying that's all just pricing... I think not. AMD lost market share, to say otherwise is utter denial.
thats funny cause from what i read k10 is a glorified/modified k8. from what i could tell they took a k8 and added some features and cores and stuff. plus i think its funny trying to consider k10 with its low-k dialectric being relevent 2 years from now
I like that picture with the crossbar switch. It would sound better if it was a crowbar switch. Why is it Inq always has such stupid titles. I think AMD will knock Intel to the mat for 6 seconds before Intel gets up and throws some jabs.
You really need to stop, you're making a total fool of yourself.
K10 is a HELL of a lot more than just "bit faster and more cores and stuff" Wikipedia has a brief article that is a good place to start, do some reading.
Everytime I see references to Wikipedia, it reminds me of this quote from Michael Scott of The Office
Let me quote.
"Wikipedia, it's the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject, so you know that you are getting the best possible information."

ASP's are in the gutter.... its entirely possible that they haven't lost much overall marketshare seeing how far prices have tumbled.
That being said they'd be better off with higher ASP's and less share.

Yeah, marketshare grabs (at any cost) is not a bright strategy for mature markets w/ entrenched leaders. I could understand the strategy for new emerging markets.
Better to own a 10% niche of the market and actually make profits, then own 40% and lose money.
