who needs a courtroom?

amd challenged intel's marketing program in the courtroom. however, amd is making inroads in the market as well...

One in five PCs, and one in four desktops, now has AMD Inside, according to analyst company Mercury Research. The silicon contender saw the strongest growth in the server market, climbing from 12.7 per cent in Q3 2005 to 16.4 per cent in the final quarter of 2005.

Desktop share climbed from 20.4 per cent to 24.3 per cent. while AMD took 15.4 per cent of the mobile market, up from 12.2 per cent.

Overall, AMD's share grew from 17.7 per cent to 21.4 per cent in the final quarter, a 78 per cent year-on-year increase.

and it appears amd's technological advantage which contributed to this market share expansion may last for years.

as i stated before about amd's lawsuit:

amd could be using the lawsuit as a tactic to make inroads

good for amd for getting its game together...
