Yousuf, just as an FYI, the Geode group is IIRC 180 people. 75 of
those are going to FTC, and the rest get either transferred or axed.

Learn to read. I didn't say 105 are getting laid off...

I said that the remainder will be transferred or laid off.

Uhh, it's in the article Daivid. I am baffled as to why AMD got involved
with Geode in the first place - I mean if Nat Semi was dumping it, an
update of an old Cyrix design, what chance was there? Hell, even the
Chinese couldn't make headway with it.

Yo, Simon! Where ya been, buddy? In the slam? It's been a while!
Missed ya! Lotta changes down the pike since the old days. Hey, I
like that shiny new gmail account - looks good on you!

I'll get you up to date tout de suite...

/yee-speak=on

Big bully Intel still lays down with running dogs croporate
immoralists, just money making.

AMD and ASUS live forever in the hearts of those peoples. Intel
people are your friends and family who are so ignorant. Forget them,
no trusting.

Really stupider Dell never testing components, just make hardware
reject itself.

/yee-speak=off

So, let's get together, do lunch, and work up a plan to revoke Intel's
license. After that, we can go hit Hooters and do some jello shots.

CYA!
