Rebranding works, AMD loses graphics marketshare in Q1 2009

[Drwho?]

Apparently it wasn't designed to run Vista Home Premium either. I'm sure you remember. You know, the case where you couldn't provide a solution capable of providing a premium experience, so you just coerced with MS to lower the standards. So while the other vendors worked, spent R&D, valuable resources and time providing a GPU that would, all Intel had to do was......nothing. You could have provided a GPU powered by hamsters and thanks to the monopoly, would have sold them. So don't even try to defend Intel's GPU decisions.

As I said, we promissed to increase the processing power by 10X in a very short time frame. You are speaking of the low end of the stack, and try to generalize it. Good marketing trick from a competitor point of view, but not really true. Other IGFx were already in production and had no issues. We saw how useful was the uneccessary layer of Vista ... design to sell GPUs without real user benetif (My personal opinion )
You can always go back in the product stack and find something that does not work on the new OS ... Like well, Intel sucks because the Pentium 1 does not run vista. Duh!
You got to be smarter than this and understand both side of the argument, otherwise, you just get manipulated by Marketing.
Let's elevate the debate, stop fanboynism.
