[CityK]

the hot cold relationship continues: Dell puts its chips on Intel

Selling both product lines would be confusing to the sales team and customers, Rollins said. He also said Intel appears ready to catch up with AMD in areas such as power consumption and heat generation and in the performance-per-watt metric.

I guess he's looking down the road five to ten years....

 

[CougTek]

He said "ready to catch-up". That's admitting the processors he puts in his boxes are curently inferior. No reason as a customer to buy Dell then. Good.

 

[sechs]

Maybe he means that Intel will be where AMD was last year in a year.

Here we go again.

I wouldn't be too horribly surprised if Dell forms a "new company" just for selling AMD-based computers. They could call it something like Dellpaq, Zapple, or dAMD Computer. :lol:

I like dAMD best. Very apt, no?

How is it that Apple gets the new Intel chips (Hans Solo or some such :mrgrn: ) before DiLL? IMO, this makes a Dell/AMD announcement much more likely.
