<A HREF="http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1895,1993320,00.asp?kc=EWNAVEMNL072406EOAD">Advanced Micro Devices will acquire graphics processor maker ATI Technologies</A> in an effort to emerge as a more formidable supplier of chips for business computers. AMD has traditionally worked with multiple partners whose chips can be used with its processors to build PCs. But the company intends to use the tie-up, announced on July 24, to deliver more tightly integrated processors and supporting chip sets, in an effort to lure more businesses.
