- Will Intel kill x86-64 by supporting it?
AMD was first on x86-64 concept and Intel has to adapt its strategy accordingly. Tthis gave Sudhian some prospective ideas about all that and it here: "Should Intel try to subtly stop AMD in this way and fail the gain on AMD’s side would, of course, be tremendous.  That’s what makes the entire situation so interesting.  Can Intel afford to let x86-64 succeed?  Is it willing to run the risk of trying to stop it?

- AMD: Firing on all circuits?
Citing latest analyst predictions, Business Week Online has a lot of nice things to say about AMD. Better results than forecasted, strong flash and Opteron sales, it's simply  the best of all possible worlds: "Wall Street may get some reassuring results on July 14 from AMD, the No. 2 PC processor maker. The second quarter is generally chipmakers' seasonally weakest period, but AMD is expected to give a strong showing -- possibly exceeding the consensus estimate of $1.22 billion in revenue and 9 cents in earnings per share".
