Advanced Micro Devices announced its new "Rev F" generation of Opteron server processors on Tuesday in the US, the next volley in a competition with Intel's newly competitive Xeon models.
IBM has dramatically expanded a partnership to use Advanced Micro Devices' Opteron processors in its servers, announcing in the US on Tuesday a full-fledged server line geared for mainstream business use.
IBM and Advanced Micro Devices are expected to announce an alliance that will lead to mainstream IBM servers based on the Opteron processor, ZDNet Australia sister site CNET News.com has learned. It's a further boost to chipmaker AMD and new blow to rival Intel's server business.
VMware, an EMC subsidiary whose software lets multiple operating systems run on the same computer, is expected to announce next week it will begin giving away one of its key products for free.
