Google Is Reportedly Switching to AMD

@ 2006/03/02
Google Inc. is switching its servers to run on Advanced Micro Devices Inc. chips instead of those made by Intel Corp., according to a Morgan Stanley report.

Google, which has more than 200,000 servers, has started to buy Advanced Micro's Opteron processors with almost all new purchases, Morgan Stanley analyst Mark Edelstone said. He raised his earnings estimates for Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Advanced Micro.

When Intel releases a server product which does better than AMD they'll switch over again - best product wins.

Not much good news from Intel lately, it seems.
