Forbes.com: AMD to move beyond PC, faster chips no longer key
Interesting decision to make. Have we finally reached the point where the speed of the processor is secondary to what you can do with it? I don't think so as nice as that would be. However, this could be a great thing for AMD if they do it right. Think about it: the processors and manufacturing processes they use aren't exactly ass, they are right behind Intel in the processor race. What if they started tailoring their devices for certain uses? Start placing full processors in digital video cameras and allowing for more control and manipulation right at the image capturing stages? What if they added their processors to VCR's and stereos for added functionality and ease of use? This could be a really interesting developement in the hardware industry.
