i think AMD will just last another quarter and thats the end of it by the look of what Intel and Nvidia is capable of doing now against AMD/ATI.
both Intel and Nvidia just sitting round and watch AMD suffer and wanna see the last drop of blood.because simply if they really want to take AMD out completely.they can make a short term lost by selling their product cheaper or near AMD's price.so all the people will buy theirs and not AMD and that will make AMD die quicker.
Because see what Nvidia and Intel have earn in the past year or so.they can just take a "TINY" chunk out of their profit and wipe out AMD just like that!!!
