AMD on the inside
Infoworld's latest issue features the microprocessor underdog AMD in a Special Report entitled, AMD: From follower to leader. AMD played copycat to Intel's successful x86 chip designs for a good part of twenty years, until Intel pulled their licensing agreement with them. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise; when Intel took its ball and went home, AMD was forced to move up the value chain and innovate on its own. Its debut original product, the Athlon, was the first to break the 1GHz speed barrier. My first AMD product was the Athlon XP, a chip that outran the Pentium 4 at two-thir From
