| | AMD Details Early Quad-Core Plans |
 | | Going forward, AMD executives said its progress will be defined by metrics like "throughput per watts per dollars", backed by specific technologies that it will try to establish as industry standards, rather than following rival Intel's lead. |
 | | On the surface, AMD's roadmaps forward bear superficial resemblances to Intel's, in that both companies share a desire to increase the number of cores on the processor die. |
 | | "We think at AMD [the move toward platforms] is a good trend; it signals a move away from speeds and feeds
and a random grab bag of features," Meyer said. |
