AMD To Shed 10% of Its Workforce
stress_life writes "Recent rumors about AMD firing 5% of its workforce proved to be understated. AMD just announced that the company is going to deliver pink slips to 1600-1700 workers, or around 10% of its employees. AMD needs revenue of $2 billion per quarter, but Q1'08 is expected to come in around $1.5 billion. These firings have to be complete by Q3'08, the quarter by which Hector Ruiz promised to be profitable." We most recently discussed AMD's struggles in February.

Viral software licensing is not freedom, it is in fact GNU/Socialism.
They're all quacks of course.
They can just make it up through overclocking !
I want to delete my account but Slashdot doesn't allow it.
Actualy, nobody has chance against the "Intel Inside" propaganda. It's just too cool.
Once you've heard the real deal MONSTER GOLD INSULATED PRO EDITION DUCK(TM) than you can't settle for any less quality duck. I wouldn't expect a non-audio lover like yourself to understand though! Such swine is so prevalent on /. these days. Amateur ducks!
I got a catholic block.
We don't care about suppliers of proprietary solutions because we have OpenSparc. We wouldn't run an open source OS on closed source hardware and firmware.

But we are Slashdot here. We run GNU, Linux, OpenSolaris etc. and we put our money where our mouth is.
