Intel Cites AMD Exec Who ‘Would Never Buy’ AMD
By
It wouldn’t be proper to start off the new year without Intel and AMD firing shots at each other and Intel has thrown down the gauntlet by quoting an AMD exec making disparaging remarks about his own products. Stand by for return fire.
Near the top of the document is the most condemning statement against AMD–an excerpt of a 2004 internal AMD communication from former AMD Executive Vice President Henri Richard, the company’s then-highest-ranking sales executive: “If you look at it with an objective set of eyes, you would never buy AMD. I certainly would never buy AMD for a personal system, if I wasn’t working here.”
