I don't think the SEC will like the monopoly in the GPU market. I won't either, but I don't own nvidia or AMD stock.

How in gods name does AMD have any cash?

This merger is not possible for it creates a monopoly in discrete graphics cards.

Does nVidia even have enough resources to acquire AMD? I mean, AMD is having problems right now, sure, but it still seems like too big of a bite for nVidia. Not to mention it would suck for the graphics card market. To be perfectly honest, I don't think this will happen.

Doug Friedman is a moron can people stop lending him credence by reporting on his ramblings he is ridiculed in the industry for knowing nothing about the graphics industry at all.

if this happens then we can all welcome a new monopoly. anyway i won't buy a gfx card now until the 2nd next gen major from now, so it has physx built in. don't much care about the half arsed job they are doing now.

Merger does not mean that AMD will be not able to use the license to produce the x86 chips, fo ras long as the name of company will not be changed.

However the buyout of AMD by nVidia is unlikely.

Further the Federal Trade Commission havimng the consideration to protect the consumers might NOT allow for the buyout, merger or or the acquisitiion.

So here is the end to this story!

Wow! What a horribly written article! Riddled with spelling mistakes and grammatical boners, this article is an affront to journalism, professional or otherwise. Did anyone proof-read this piece of garbage? Try hiring an editor, they'd work wonders for your credibility.

Even if we overlook these problems and focus on the content itself, the article fails to remind readers that ATI, Nvidia's rival, is owned by AMD, effectively making NVidia the owner of its only real competition. That is a monopoly, with or without the top hat.

The only way NVIDIA can survive is by making their own CPU platform. Once Intel enters the High End graphics market Nvidia's market share will drop significantly.
