TechARP has posted an interesting editorial called 'More Trouble For AMD In 2008?'

AMD continued a losing streak for the fifth quarter in a row when they posted a massive net loss of 1.772 billion dollars in the 4th quarter of 2007. Of course, they blamed most of it ($1.675 billion) on their acquisition of ATI. Without that, ATI said it would have been a much smaller loss of only $97 million.

It certainly doesn't bode well for AMD's future in 2008. Even their launch of the long-awaited Radeon HD 3870 and 3850 graphics cards could not help them wrest the performance leadership in 3D graphics from arch-rival, NVIDIA. NVIDIA has since launched an even faster GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB graphics card as well as two lower-cost SKUs, the GeForce 8800 GS 768MB and 384MB graphics cards, to nullify AMD's new graphics cards.
