AMD Had a Chance to Get Llano Into Apple's Macbook Air

Should have, could have, would have..... Makes no difference now. Too bad, so sad.

I am sure Apple looks at AMD frequently as it's video cards occasionally come from there. Yawn.

when you're going against intel, your chances are going to be small no matter who you are. they are known for using illegal and noncompetitive tactics to get the deals they want.

This would've been *the* opportunity AMD needed, to secure a stable customer...why didn't the company pour all resources into this project?

I was not saying they are bad chips, I'd actually love to have a Llano. My point was that when someone says "supposed superiority" due to being in Apple, I just had to counter that since Apple's superiority (if any) is not in choice of hardware.
