Microsoft interested in buying AMD
 

End of the Wintel alliance

The dark satanic rumour mill has manufactured a hell on earth yarn claiming that the much loved software giant Microsoft wants to by the fabless chipmaker AMD.

A Windows Central has been chatting to someone in Microsoft and thinks that Microsoft approached the company a few months back. The results are still unknown -- if the company has really made a bid to AMD.

It would be an interesting idea. Microsoft would save a billion dollars it pays every year to AMD.
