Dell wants to be an "enterprise" company too. How much enterprise market is actually out there?
IBM was light years ahead of their time selling the business off to Lenovo. Will anyone buy a consumer PC business with profit margins of 0.0001% ? Amazing how the events of a single day can show just how fucked one company has become.
there is not much market out there... especially under budget troubled government .... its exactly the effect of choosing a SAP staff as CEO who dont know how to sell anything to People !
HP seems to be AMD's best partner. If HP sells this division off, what's to say the new ownership doesn't cut down on usage of their APUs? AMD pretty much gets stuck with Toshiba and Acer as their major partners. Compared to HP, their solutions just don't cut it for me.
Wow, didn't realize that. Every time I've looked at Lenovo's offerings, it's been the netbook (E-350, Athlon Neo) variety. Even now on their website they only have the weaker A series APUs. HP, although only listing the dv6zqe, has 4 APU options.
