Broadcom to buy ATI TV division
For a song, not a video
REMEMBER THE LOSS AMD took on its TV division? Well, that was just paving the way for Broadcom to buy it.
Yeah, Broadcom is getting the best TV chip division in the world for a song, more power to them.
You kind of wonder why AMD didn't sell this off a while ago when it worth a lot more and companies actually wanted it. Live and learn. µ

Day's Low 4.05 Shitps Breaking UP, Capt'n!
Ultiee', Bearer of Inane thinks, if one more haifing occurs, its real BET. Think, 2 to 4th power, BUY Low, Sell High. I Read that somewhere, maybe in Distinquished Letters.Dee Crystals Are Breaking Apart, Capt'n. yet NO Warp Drive Orders? Can We Afford to Wait with old Senile kirk Still sputtering.
Still to End trial that revolved around stock price fixing, somehow, search must of gone beyond price, Lost: I.)Hector & Now I.) TV Chippery, from other Guy, ati. Light Sabres' At Mast!
BTW, that reminds Me. Carla Florina will be on TV Sunday Mourning, After Plowering 'Er Aye Capitan? On Meet the Press. On Lcos Sabreing 'Er, aye Cap?
So will she lose another $2/scher or are squals of indifference gone. Tom arryo is another Day.

Samsung Got its' Pluck.
well
at least they ain't copying atom. amen.At this rate
there won't be a DAAMMIT worth a tinker's d*mn left. They'd better be praying for fat margins on the 48xx series. Unfortunately, from what I've heard from friends in the SJ area, they priced it to move in a desperate bid to rebuild market share. A flopping CPU division and the lack of profit (and still not "fastest single card" for gaming graphics) from the graphics division. DAAMMIT better start praying.Curious
Funny how many journalist and sites herald ATI's video as so wonderful yet any customer I ever hear about it says they aren't so positive at all, I wonder if broadcom also acquires their PR department.don't cry for me montevina
for those who love to bottom fish, remember 9.4.08 & 8.19.08 - not necessarily in that order...for the fundamentally astute, no soup for you

WTF, drashek?
drashek, what are you babbling about?You've bombarded every articles with your gibberish nonsense.
Anyway why sell the ATi TV division? Hasn't it generates revenue, or did AMD badly need cash?
Hang on, I see a pattern..
Anything about Nvidia, Charlie says it's rubbish, anything about Ati, it's wonderful...It's sad really...
Ati's marketshare is what 30%, NVidia's 70% it's that way because NVidia clearly make better products.
Dubious...
I don't know guys...I'm dubious on this topic. Hopefully there is a talented team of people who will take this over because Broadcom is just as bad at drivers as nvidia is.Nowandthen
Hey mark, you are living in the past pal, keep informed so you don't make outdated comments.
