    AMD is doing very well in every other aspect of their business, but they can't catch a break with CPUs. They have top GPUs, with better to come in 2010, awesome chipsets, good server CPUs and platforms on the way, and even got the contract for the next XBox GPU. Global Foundries is even getting good contracts left and right.

    i reaally dont think this article is true. now all of their money can be focused on architecture. dresdenboy has given us some nice info on it and it looks impressive.

    Um, no. Now they pay GloFo to make each wafer for them. The costs didn't magically go away, it's just that instead of process R&D and equipment capital, they now pay per part, like they pay TMSC to fab GPUs.

    12-18 months would be typical from first silicon to production launch for a new CPU architecture. We've yet to see first silicon... has AMD said when they expect to have it back?
