I think your perspective may be too narrow on this one magnet. Not that I think AMD is the king of charitable corporations, but there are two parts of this article you seem to have missed. The main reason for the 'hullabaloo' is not just these two labs, but also the three that have come before it. So 5 labs in under 2 years in one country isn't so bad in terms of corporate donations to learning. But then as mentioned it's part of this 50x15 initiative, which has an even broader scope, and truely is a lofty goal for a corporation. 
So I don't mind if it seems a bit excessivly 'pat-on-the-back' from Inq, at least it's news of a company doing good rather than another company snooping more, or fighting to lessen user's rights.
Don't get me wrong - this is indeed a good deed by AMD - but we are talking about a ~$40,000 donation for these 2 labs (and actual cost to AMD is far less than this) from a MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR company. I would have more respect for this type of activity if it was done quietly as the cynic in me sees this done as much for PR as anything. 

Many companies do comparable if not far more charitable activities, but don't seem to feel the need to get it out in the press as much or the INQ doesn't seem to feel the need to report on it... curious....
Are you only doing this for black schools or do you also help mixed schools which are falling under Section 21 Schools?
