Default Intel buys AMD/ATi

Quote:
In what some market analysis call a predicted move, AMD shares hit rock bottom Friday, and processor giant Intel has swooped down to consume the manufacturer. It is expected that Intel will use AMD/ATi's current socket AM2 for the Core 2 Duo series CPUs, modified to hit speeds of 1333MHz

I think if this were posted on a different date, I might believe it more.

But, we'll see if it plays out.

i love a good joke myself. What would be even funnier is if a bunch of folks ran out and bought some stocks based off of this. You knows there's a couple of people who actually think this is a true story. So they're out investing in this and toilet bowl TsIP.
