AMD can’t even get through Valentine’s Day without knocking Intel
Posted in: AMD, intel, Today's Chili
Oh AMD, is no corporate-mandated, decidedly commercialist holiday sacred to you? While we were all snuggling with our snookums and/or cooing to our cohorts the marketing team at Advanced Micro Devices was shipping out something a little bit nasty — and not in the “go get the fuzzy handcuffs” kind of nasty. The company sent out a mug of chocolates that, on the front, says “I ♥ APU,” referencing the Fusion platform that’s recently powered the HP Pavilion dm1z and Lenovo Thinkpad x120e to solid reviews. Sadly, that wasn’t enough, as the note started like this:
I heard that Sandy B. broke your heart and wanted to let you know that I’m here for you. Oh, and I have a cousin from Llano, Texas I’d like to introduce you to soon–I think you two will really hit it off!
XOXO,
AMD Fusion APU
Cute, AMD. And here we thought maybe you and Intel had finally made up.
