Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD)

chipguy, Athlon didn't initially snag any tier-1 OEMs in the consumer space either, but anyone who tries to represent Athlon as anything but a resounding success for AMD(albeit with a few snags along the way), is just being dishonest. I'm confident Opteron and A64 will do the same; maybe along a different, more unorthodox path than Intel takes, but that's alright. They've already had some prestigious wins which, granted, are not volume situations, but AMD can take a different path to success in the server/workstation/etc. market than Intel and others and be very successful. Unconventional warfare, if you please. ;)
