AMD Says It's Benefiting From Intel's Woes

Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) said it's benefiting from rival Intel Corp.'s (INTC) support chip design woes, with customers approaching the semiconductor company for additional supply.

AMD has been fielding requests from original-equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, and electronics retailers for help and product as a result of a design error in an Intel support chip, Leslie Sobon, AMD vice president of product and platform marketing, said in an interview with Dow Jones Newswires.
