AMD Management

Excuse me, Charlie, but wouldn't an Executive VP be a part (and a major part at that) of management? Who could fire him, but the President/CEO, if even that?

Are you trying to lay this all at his Hectorness's door?

As Mario didn't stay long, seems to me that this is probably a situation where Mario disagreed with his Hectorness. Probably had some excellent ideas, but you know His Hectorness....

Ah, well, it was nice while it lasted. I wonder where Intel's next competitor will come from? India? China? My euros (dollars are SO worthless) are on the Middle Kingdom.

Am not a rocket scientist

Maybe AMD is sinking because it could not really afford ATI, maybe the time to have a return on the investment is too long a stretch.

Additionally phenom delays and the screwed finale really bombed...

Not forgetting Intel has a superior product...

To top it off, the is a trial going on & if it goes AMD's way it will prove intel used anti competative practices...

Just a thought
