| 1322611 | 2013-01-15 08:04:00 | IDC and Gartner report (www.engadget.com) declining PC globals shipments. But of course destops are still prevalent, being useful for cetain tasks. Though I guess desktop use could be higher (relative to any researched official sales) due to customization of components to produce a desktop, utilizing multiple virtual desktops or a extended/upgraded lifecycle of earlier desktops. | kahawai chaser (3545) | ||

Global Foundries will most likely be ruined by the end of the year. It was only AMD's competiton in the late 90's that brought the price of cpus down. I have always bought AMD But yes I suppose they have always made less money than AMD. |
