A FILING WITH the Securities and Exchange Commission shows that AMD has extended its existing deal with IBM.

According to Investors.com, the SEC filing will mean AMD will pay IBM up to $280 million from September this year to December 2008.

The deal means that AMD will also be able to draw on semiconductor technologies developed by Big Blue.

It still remains somewhat unclear whether IBM will start churning out chips for AMD if there's sufficient demand to soak up production at the CPU company's Dresden fab.

But AMD engineers do work at IBM's East Fishkill plant.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
