In the biggest news to come out of the hardware scene in years, Its been reported that AMD have brought ATi for a reported $5.5 billion US

"Advanced Micro Devices, the No. 2 supplier of computer processors, is close to a deal to buy graphics chip maker ATI for $5.5 billion, a source familiar with the situation said on Friday.

Any such deal would shake up the processor industry, which is witnessing a battle over market share between AMD and larger rival Intel"

Personally, I think this is great stuff..
While the AMD/Nvidia deal will be broken, it shouldnt matter with the resources this mega company will have it should be fantastic to see what comes out, and what Nvidia/Intel do about it

As Ej said, competition is great. It makes people work harder to beat one another.

We should see some great things come from this. If nothing else it should allow future AMD users to get more out of their ATi cards.

Oh noes, i have an intel, ATi combo :(
