Without being rude AMD are fecked.

Intel are destroying them at the top, arm at the bottom. Where exactly do they fit into the marketplace, ermmm I think the answer is nowhere.

lol "video" am pretty sure AMD will get laptops with DX11 before both intel and NVIDIA
and it will be a good selling point to!

just look at the Radeon HD 5000 series, they use little power and they should be able to do amazing things in the notebook graphics on amd platforms, heck even amd chipsets are power efficent!, now we only need Low Power CPUs

Intel IGPs are CRAPtastic and did you know AMD is on top on Discrete GPU market?, heck they are first with DirectX 11, dont forget AMD IGP chipsets beats the crap out of intels, it dosnt mater much if you intel CPU is powerful when it has a CRAPPY IGP like G45 compared to exellent AMD 785G/790GX
