Why AMD Could Win The Coming Visual Computing Battle

Vigile writes "The past week has been rampant with discussion on the new war that is brewing between NVIDIA and Intel, but there was one big player left out of the story: AMD. It would seem that both sides have written this competitor off, but PC Perspective thinks quite the opposite. The company is having financial difficulties, but AMD already has the technologies that both NVIDIA and Intel are striving to build or acquire: mainstream CPU, competitive GPU, high quality IGP solutions and technology for hybrid processing. This article postulates that both Intel and NVIDIA are overlooking a still-competitive opponent, which could turn out to be a drastic mistake."

$30 for an 8GB USB flash drive? That doesn't really compare to the 10 CENTS I pay for a blank DVD. I still need to share gigs of data with people where placing that data online isn't an option. If I had to spend $30 a pop to send these out, it would cost a small fortune.

And no, the information I'm sharing isn't illegal.
