Message: The merger meeting has been cancelled. It was point out by "korey" on the Engadget.com forums that "AMD is horrible" and that we should "use intel use the best". Sorry for all the trouble.

But the prospect of an AMD-ATI super chip could lead to huge innovations in the PC and many other industries.

Just amazing dumbasses, get it made into an Olympic sport and Enter yourselves, bias smacktards.

Next off, this might hurt AMD in the short term, but if the partnership can hold out, we might have the beginnings of a new Technological Superpower by mutual benefaction.]]>Jul 21st 2006 3:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/Jul 21st 2006 4:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/Jul 21st 2006 5:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/
As for ATI, I've not had problems with any of their drivers in the last few years. In the Win98 days...oh yeah....but not really now.

I don't think it's necessarily a terrible idea, and it could benefit both companies in the long run.]]>Jul 21st 2006 5:28PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/....i cant stand ATI]]>Jul 21st 2006 5:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/

I just hope this doesn't mean (more) integrated graphics.]]>Jul 22nd 2006 2:19AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/Jul 22nd 2006 3:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/http://www.engadget.com/2006/07/21/amd-and-ati-to-pitch-merger-to-shareholders-on-monday/
Even if AMD does not get chipsets from NVIDIA anymore, they get them from ATI, so the whole talk about AMD going back to the K7 days is not going to happen because ATI will make their chipsets.

Also, I do believe that this merger is more focused on mobile devices as AMD has spent a lot of time and resources in the past 2 years to improve their mobile device department.

So no K7 days and better mobile devices.

But seriously, who trusts the Inquirer as a reliable source?
