If you live in Europe, you can obtain one today from Fujitsu-Siemens as the <a href="http://ts.fujitsu.com/home/products/notebooks/amilo_graphic_booster.html" rel="nofollow">Amilo Graphics Booster</a>, and we hope to make this ATI part more widely available soon.

AMD has experienced great growth in terms of its product offering, product range, international position and recognition, and competitive position against Intel. While shopping for components to build my gaming PCs, I for one am more than happy and proud to do things such as explain to anyone the difference between the true quad core Phenom X4 processor and Intel's "quad" core (which is still basically a dual core), or the advantages of ATI cards over NVIDIA's. I only wish I could celebrate AMD's anniversary as an AMD employee. It has been my desire for the last 5 years to join the AMD team in a marketing or international business position, and have applied for numerous positions to no avail. Hence, if you ever get a little time, ask to pull my profile from your HR database, and then consider allowing me the pleasure of participating in AMD's continued growth for at least the next 20 years! Cheers, Gary A. Dolch Nigel,

Every PC I've bought or built since I first heard of AMD has had an AMD processor. Great support, great architecture and lots of terrific innovation. But... Right now, I've been hearing about the new ATI XPT for months, anything from "coming soon" to "unveiled" to "released". I'm really beginning to wonder, because I've switched from desktop PCs to notebooks, and I'd really, really like to have an XGP, but they seem to be vapor-ware. Have they been released for sale yet, and if so, where can I buy one? Thanks, Dan Ok, I’ve been a huge fan of AMD and their products for years.

I think in the future there are many AMD products in different form like large Flat Panel TV with X86 computing using AMD Platform (This is possible!!!), handheld (with future AMD chips at lower TDP, and set top box equipped with all possible internet connections (WIMAX or 4G, WIFI, Cable modem, DSL, Dial up modem, (I hope to be more slim than current HTPC form factor).

Since I bought my first K5 processor back in the late 90's to my current Phenom 9850 x4.. AMD has always been my chip of choice for every build. (and I've done a lot) :) Thanks everyone! - Bill *gets out my party hat*
