The rumor spreading around the net is that Samsung is in talks to buy AMD so that they can be in a better position to compete with Intel and Qualcomm. The question of course will be what happens to AMD's X86 line, but no matter the outcome it seems the short term is helping AMD's stock price so could this be a good thing, or the beginning of the end for team red?

Also covered at: Tom's Hardware, The Register, and XDA Developers.

        Hairyfeet might get noticed more often if he would shave once in a while.
