Rivet, AMD's chief financial officer. "Exceptional customer demand for our server, mobile and desktop processors helped drive microprocessor sales growth of 44 percent compared to the third quarter of 2004 and 26 percent compared to the second quarter of 2005. We established new quarterly records in unit and dollar sales, gross margin and operating income."

BUSINESS OVERVIEW Third quarter gross margin was 41 percent compared to 40 percent in the third quarter of 2004 and 39 percent in the second quarter of 2005. The increase was due to improved gross margins in both our microprocessor and Flash memory businesses. Record Computation Computation is a general term for any type of information processing that can be represented mathematically. This includes phenomena ranging from simple calculations to human thinking. Product Group (CPG CPG central pattern generators. ) sales of $969 million increased 44 percent from $673 million in the third quarter of 2004 and increased 26 percent from $767 million in the second quarter of 2005. CPG generated record operating income of $209 million in the third quarter, up from $89 million in the third quarter of 2004 and $110 million in the second quarter of 2005. CPG's third quarter sales growth was driven by record server, mobile and desktop processor sales and a more than doubling of sales to large global OEM accounts compared to the third quarter of 2004. Record mobile processor sales were largely the result of a 72 percent increase quarter-on-quarter in AMD Turion A version of the Athlon 64 CPU from AMD designed for thin, lightweight laptops. The Turion 64 CPUs dissipate as little as 25 watts compared to 65 for the Athlon. Introduced in 2005, Turion enhanced AMD's line of mobile CPUs, which included the Mobile Athlon 64 for full-sized laptops and 64(TM) mobile processor sales. Geographically, sales were especially strong in high-growth markets including Russia, India and Greater China. Memory Products Group (MPG The extension used on the MPEG file format. See MPEG. 1. (jargon) MPG - Miles per gallon, as in "Your MPG may vary", i.e. "Your mileage may vary". 2. (filename extension) mpg - A filename extension for a file in MPEG format. ) sales of $516 million decreased 4 percent from $538 million in the third quarter of 2004 and increased 12 percent from $462 million in the second quarter of 2005. MPG reduced its operating loss to $50 million, from an operating loss of $90 million in the second quarter of 2005. The revenue increase over the second quarter of 2005 was driven by record unit sales, increased purchases by the largest global wireless OEMs, and a richer product mix. MirrorBit Flash sales increased 35 percent from the second quarter of 2005 on improved unit volumes and ASPs. ADDITIONAL HIGHLIGHTS OF THE QUARTER --AMD continued to expand the breadth of its industry-leading AMD64 product portfolio, introducing in the quarter more than 20 new AMD Opteron(TM), AMD Turion 64, and AMD Athlon(TM) 64 processors. --Based on overall performance and performance-per-watt leadership in the x86 server market, commercial adoption of AMD64 technology continues at a rapid pace. Today, more than 85 of the top 100 companies on the Forbes Global 2000 or their subsidiaries use AMD products. Companies that have recently joined these growing ranks include Saudi Aramco Saudi Aramco, the state-owned national oil company of Saudi Arabia, is the largest oil corporation in the world and the world's largest in terms of proven crude oil reserves and production. , Fidelity National Financial, Liberty Media, Manulife Financial Manulife Financial (NYSE: MFC, TSX: MFC, SEHK: 945, PSE: MFC), also known as The Manufacturers Life Insurance Company, is a major Canadian insurance company and financial services provider. of Japan, SKF SKF Svenska Kullagerfabriken SKF Svenska Klätterförbundet (Sweden) SKF Smithsonian Kite Festival SKF San Antonio Kelly Field Annex (Lackland AFB, Texas) Group and United Parcel Service United Parcel Service, Inc.

Sun Microsystems Sun Microsystems, Inc. (NASDAQ: JAVA[3]) is an American vendor of computers, computer components, computer software, and information-technology services, founded on 24 February 1982. introduced its new "Galaxy" family of servers and workstations powered by AMD Opteron multi-core processors. Fujitsu Siemens Computers Fujitsu Siemens Computers is a Japanese and German IT vendor, selling consumer and business computing products in the markets of Europe, the Middle East and Africa (products marketed elsewhere are sold under the Fujitsu brand). also launched a new series of workstations based on the AMD Opteron processor. --Sun named AMD "Supplier of the Year" for extraordinary contributions to Sun's stellar record of delivering top-quality technology and service to its customers. --AMD introduced the AMD Commercial Stable Image Platform Stable Image Platform is the name of an initiative introduced by Intel. Intel's main competitor, AMD, later introduced a similar program. (AMD CSIP CSIP Care Services Improvement Partnership (UK) CSIP Commercial Stable Image Platform (AMD) CSIP Center for Signal and Image Processing (Georgia Tech) ) program.

That can be managed or controlled: manageable problems. man , lowering IT costs and increasing end-user productivity. --The AMD64 platform added to its long roster of awards. AMD's industry-leading dual-core processors received a 2005 Popular Mechanics Breakthrough Award and were chosen to power the 10th annual Maximum PC Dream Machine. AMD also received "Best of Show" honors for best overall presence and products at Gartner Group's Mid-Size Enterprise Summit. --Spansion demonstrated 1Gb ORNAND(TM) Flash memory based Programs that hold all data in memory for processing.
