The overall consumer market is decided by what OEMs ship in their laptops and desktops. Normal people cares about Intel and AMD as much as they care about the brand of the gasoline in their car, possibly less. Convince Dell & Co to buy from AMD and AMD is going to have the upper hand in consumer market.
- mumblemumble 5y agoDell & Co do buy from AMD, so I think it's not quite that. Admittedly right now their laptop search tool indicates that they sell 130 models with Intel processors, while AMD is relegated to the 15" Inspirons and Alienware laptops. But still. It seems like maybe there's got to be some more subtle reason why you're not seeing them in the Chromebooks or XPS 13s than just that they're devoted to one manufacturer and shutting the other one out.
