AMD seems upset that ALi got bought

WHEN WE DISCOVERED last week that ALi appeared to have sold 60 per cent of its chipset business to UMC, we thought we'd have a chat with Ryan Crouch, desktop product marketing supremo at AMD America, who was sat just a few feet away, to see what he thought about it all.

He sat there for a little while and said he didn't really want to comment on it. So we took a photo of him instead.

Then we got into photo-taking mode and went upstairs to the AMD booth. Here's some snaps we took. The big bandwidth ones can be seen by clicking on the smaller ones. Except for the one of Andreas Stiller, at c't magazine.

Ah, that'd be why Ryan wouldn't want to comment on ALi then, we realised late yesterday. µ
