AMD and Fujitsu Spin Off Static Memory Giant

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the because-one-big-company-is-uh-bigger dept.

prostoalex writes "AMD and Fujitsu will form a new memory company.

    There are more indepth articles about this here and here. The latter article discussed the motivation for the move in a little more depth:
    "This is only going to help AMD and Fujitsu become as stronger competitor and move up in market position," said Krewell. "They are in better shape to challenge Intel because they appear as one stronger brand, rather than as two lesser brands."
