AMD is not doing well. After kicking Intel in the teeth a decade ago<br>
with the Opteron they ran into build issues, stumbled, and have never<br>
recovered their momentum. They still don't have a PCIe v.3 capable<br>
chipset. It's been 4+ years since PCIe v.3 came out. That alone will<br>
kill them in the server market.<br>
<br>
Their consumer cpu's are still a better bang for buck line-up than Intel<br>
but they can't sell enough of what looks like last year's technology to<br>
the gamer crowd or the business box buyer.<br>
<br>
I don't expect to see them around in 2020 and that will be a bad thing.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>FWIW, AMD cpus power both the Xbox One and the PS4, so they have *some* successful products still.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you<br>
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his<br>
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.<br>
