Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The successful introduction of Intel's Core 2 Duo dual-core processor range for desktops has forced dramatic price cuts on AMD's own dual-core chips.
AMD has slashed prices by more than half on its high end Athlon 64 X2
chips in response to superior benchmark performances from the new
generation Intel Core 2 Duo chips.
The move by AMD signals a determination by the company to defend its market share at all costs.
AMD made a big noise when it succeeded in crossing the 20% market share
barrier at Intel's expense in the desktop space. The company's CEO
Hector Ruiz has also predicted that AMD will achieve 30% market share
by 2008.
However, Intel, which has been going through a rough patch, appears to
have a different vision of the future and recently declared that it
will be first to market with a quad-core processor before the end of
the year.
In response, AMD has said that it will be first to market with a "true"
quad-core processor in mid-2007, distinguishing its four single core on
one die architecture from Intel's two dual-core on one die solution.
