Hey if Intel can reside inside of a Mac, then an AMD 64 chip inside a Dell server is not that preposterous. Looks like, AMD finally broke through the last remaining barrier in its competition with Intel. Dell, however, is still resisting using AMD chips in its desktops and laptops. Only a matter of time. (Update: Got rid of the chart for now – will update it in the morning, but right now in the after hours trading, looks like AMD is up about 12.5% and Intel is down 4.5%.) Also, from the archives: My Business 2.0 story on why AMD rocks in Server space, but trails in laptops.
