AMD Reports $611 Million Loss

Posted by Zonk on from the just-a-little-bit-of-money dept.

mpfife writes "Toms Hardware reports that declining microprocessor sales have pushed AMD deeply into the red. 'The company reported a net loss of $611 million on revenues of $1.233 billion, which is more than 20% below the guidance the company expected at the end of Q4 2006. The loss includes charges related to the ATI acquisition in the amount of $113 million, but is mainly a result of the increasing competition with Intel in the microprocessor market.'"

    They already have: They talked to the competition and said "Fly, be free!"

    Software specs could be sorted out quickly. The "What Operating System shall we use?" thread will have one post in it: "I say Linux, anyone disagree?"
