Upside interviews Jerry Sanders of AMD

An Anonymous reader writes "Titled The Last Man Standing, this Upside interview offered an inside view of the bloody war between the two CPU makers from Sanders' point of view. He also talks about upcoming Hammer, flash memory, Transmeta and telecomm bubbles. Somehow I get a feeling that both companies are living under the heavy cloud of Microsoft. Pretty lengthy, but an interesting reading.""

    It's finally happened. Banner ads have replaced content all together. Either that or Upside is not mac/netscape 4.7 compatable.

    Fellow slashdot readership, I am a troll. I was born a troll and will undoubtably die a troll. I strive everyday to maintain the higest standard
    in my trollishness. We trolls are fairly simplistic creatures, we enjoy many of the same things as you do. And often have similar vices as well.
    But alas you refuse to treat us a equals, You see us as disruptors, interelopers, vagrants, vandals, visigoths, and worse... We ask for respect, and you spit upon us. We implore you for mercy, and you bitchslap us. We plead for help and you ignore us. We demande substance and you give us Katz.

    We shall take this no longer. This is a TROLL REVOLUTION. I call for all freedom loving trolls to stand up and take a stand on what is important to you. Do your worst to drive conversations offtopic, use your trollish wit to confuse the masses, throw another kerosene soaked log on the flamewars of justice! We shall regain our equality! This is a Trollish Jihad, By the Graces of Allah we shall be Victorious!

      I support your jihad and I am busy working on a /. replacement where there is no such thing as as down moderation. Yes, even trolls, crapflooders, and the first post clickfest people will be welcome (and praised). All nerds will be welcome! I cannot give too many details right now, but when the time comes you will know about it.

    I LOVED his cable TV show! All the "behind the scenes" stuff and all. But I am very disappointed that we can only see it in reruns.

    He was a lot better on TV, much funnier, than in this article that shows up as nothing but banner ads in my browser.

    Is he still pals with Joan Rivers? She should be the spokeswoman for AMD, IMHO.

    Turkey is working on becoming a member of the European Union, and they are in the same area as Israel.

    There are Israeli sports teams in European leagues.

    For the World Cup, and all other sports-related matters I know of, Israel counts as a part of Europe. Economically, it makes sense to put them in that class, too. In the same way, Egypt is usually counted as a part of the Middle East despite the fact it is squarely on the African continent.
