iSuppli Corp. has estimated that AMD has actually gained some market share during Q2 07 based on chip revenue figures.

AMD needs all the positive news it can get until Phenom debuts....so hopefully they're right

but at what price have they gained market share? i mean... how much money are they making on those ultra low price cpu's (-massive rebates they most likely give to the big oems)? i bet its not a lot... but a little is better than none... so its still good news.

AMD could be facing a growing support of developers. When the company announced SSE5 instructions for its future processors, it also made the information available to developers. That wasn't a one time thing either, as yesterday AMD released over 600 pages of GPU specifications concerning the RV630 and M65 registers. An open source R500/600 driver is expected sometime next week.

w00t for amd

All the price cuts they have made really hasn't hurt them. They are still making dollars on the penny, just a point of faster return in research funds and what not.
