Cooool, AMD always needs a lil more rating, so many people(except gamers and PC enthu. 's)think AMD is crap, which it isn't.

Bad news for nvidia, that means nvidia should work harder to get apple's attention on it's graphics card.

I swear, Jobs could sell ice to Eskimos and walk out with a 5 year contract with their land as collateral.

Yup, just like Jacob Marley.

If Apple starts using ATI products, my next PC will be powered by Nvidia. Bottom line.

 

[apache_lives]

this is probably also because of failure rates with nvidia mobile products, and the capabilities of intel's integrated video(initial previews look great for basic integrated video)

AMD doesn't need that dirty money.

 

[dragonfang18]

Does this mean the price of their computers will go down, or the fact that they will earn more money doing this if they just keep prices the way they are? I guess to ignorant people they are the same, though they dont know who much worse they are losing....

AMD have stolen the rug from under nvidia feet but like everything in our world, people always want what they don't need...amd don;t need a venture with apple - that's like obama dealing with the mafia

i hope they don't go with AMD...when it comes to performance, NVIDIA is much better and the same goes for the drivers

the release of vista and nvidia's drivers for vista says otherwise for drivers and hows about google "hp nvidia dead" and see how many faults nvidia products have before saying that

And how is
"Cnet reports, is that Apple could be dumping Nvidia in favor of going with Intel's integrated graphics. "
the basis for the title
"Apple Ditching Nvidia to Pair With AMD" ?

Is this just a test to see who will write ATI vs. NVIDIA comments w/o reading the article ?

Sandy Bridge graphics will continue to be the lowest performance integrated graphics compared to the competition of its time. So this is not the main reason for Apple to switch to it.

 

[icemunk]

Nvidia's on its way out, they would be smart to merge with Intel or some other big company.

because Steve Job is a marketing genius, which is someone that AMD needs, badly.

Wow, don't buy anything with components from Intel either... wait, who supplys the memory for Apple... Kingston? Samsung? better check fast.

Worst still, Apple has their stuff assembled by Foxconn... oh dear, probably the biggest electronics sub assembly in the world, their stuff is found pretty much everywhere... I bet even Asus uses stuff from Foxconn. (connectors most likely)

man, you're screwed... there is just a little bit of Apple likeness in everything you own or will probably own in the future!
