AMD doubled market share
 
Wait..in Japan, AMD is beating out Intel in consumer CPU's?

I have a hard time believing it, not because AMD doesnt deserve it, but because I really doubted that the average consumer would have been willing to change so readily.

And assuming that Cyrix and Macs and all them other folk have 3% combined of the market in Europe, AMD's leading there too, which is not just a country, but an entire continent.

I thought this day would come eventually, but not so soon.

Yeah I saw that and was goign to post, but forgot... hmmm cool though... AMD ROCKS!

I think you'd need more then a couple thousand, once you get there you would find that Japan is quite a pricey country to live in. :)

Nice improvement, AMD deserves it.

They won't take over the market as long as so many stubborn people believe AMD is crap and you need patches to run anything on them.

People say "Yeah, but the P4 encodes a DVD faster !"
That's the only feature so far that is faster than AMD and very few people do that.

Exactly; are those DVD to Mpeg4 rippers even legal from a copyright stand point? No much to brag about, if it lands you in jail.

GO AMD!!! Now if they would reveal the Thoughbred please...

Nice!

Maybe now everyone is starting to realize that Intel isn't all it's cracked up to be.

Go AMD! My Athlon 800 and I salute you!

:D :D :D
