... but I'm more interested in an AMD Phenom II X4 940 or 955 that runs at less than 95W (yeah I know there's a 95W version of X4 940 but it's as hard to find as penguins in the desert).

Since Jerry Sanders and Seven others co founder set up AMD as a delaware law company there are several people left AMD and help founded several others company in semiconductor industries. This is the uncompleted list about the company that founded by people that previously is an AMD employee :
1. IDT (Integrated Devices Technology) by D. John Carey (also co-founder of AMD)
2. MAXIM Integrated Products by Jack Gifford (also co-founder of AMD)
3. Cypress Semiconductor by T.G. Rodgers
4. NVIDIA Corporations by Jen-Hsun Huang
5. Raza Semiconductor (become RMI, Inc.) founded by ex AMD President Atiq Raza

And also several spun off from AMD like:
1. Spansion (Previously AMD non-volatile memory products)
2. Globalfoundries (AMD FAB)
3. Vantis Corporations sold to Lattice Semiconductor previously bought MACH CPLD Products by AMD

Still the only company that bought by AMD is :
1. Nextgen
2. ATI

Whither SB8xx?
