Things are looking worse for AMD every second. AMD's stock value has recently dropped below the point of which they purchased ATI last year. For reverence, Intel is now worth 162 billion and Nvida is worth 19 bn. Full article can be found here.

I wanted to post some pro AMD piece since the importance of them as a player on the market is way underrated, but the last part of the article already sayed everything I wanted to say:
Quote:
Let’s hope that AMD’s fortunes in 2008 change for the better because as an industry we need AMD to continue to innovate and deliver great choice to consumers. In recent times, we wouldn’t have had great products like the GeForce 8800 and Core 2, if it wasn' for AMD's forward-thinking innovations like the Athlon 64 and Radeon X1900-series, which were class leading products at their time of introduction (and continued to be class-leading for much of their lives).
Apart from that AMD has some excellent budget solutions which are overlooked too much. Most of that is caused by people who assume that since Intel and Nvidia are the best in the upper market they must be the best in the budget department. Something which isn't true at all.
