AMD is nearly out of cash, says analyst
“It took Intel 4 years to catch AMD, as management noted on the call, but how long will it take AMD to catch Intel? We believe AMD will not have a product that can match Intels 45-nm parts for at least 12 months, and even then we expect it will take AMD considerable time to regain lost market share, he said.
Based on AMDs conference call, it gets worse. AMD expects to regain share in Q2. This is as much a function of increasing wins with ATI as it is a function of massive share loss in Q1, he said.
This is bad news for consumers, bad news for ATI, and bad news for all of us looking for what AMD has locked behind those closed doors. They need something to beat Intel and I know it’s right around the corner… but it won’t get out if they run out of money….
