I think you are not the only one.
I still think this deal is very risky for AMD despite the fact that they now
have AGAIN the possibility to create chipsets for their own hardware and might
create a new system on a chip (all in one solution like the MediaGX Processor
from Cyrix several years ago - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaGX).

I think we have to see what will happen over the next two years.
