If I ran AMD, I would redirect the company's effort toward building a low-cost, low-power, high-density, flash-based cloud server platform around Bobcat. Intel's Justin Rattner has admitted that for certain cloud workloads, these types of high-density solutions are superior to a monolithic server chip like Xeon. So AMD should stop obsessing over netbooks and monolithic server parts—both of these amount to fighting the last war—and just jump straight into the cloud server market that ARM is set to tackle with its upcoming Eagle part.
the idea would be to use a mass array of bobcat cores vs a traditional 2p/4p BD?
