AMD has released the following statement regarding the Dell announcement that it intends to expand its relationship with AMD.

In addition to a 4P AMD Opteron processor-based server, Dell plans to offer a 2P AMD Opteron processor-based server later this year, and deliver AMD processor-based Dimension desktop PCs next month.

Dells wider embrace of AMD processor-based offerings is a win for Dell, for the industry, and most importantly for Dell customers, says Gaith Kadir, AMDs regional vice-president, Middle East and Africa. Dells plan to expand the AMD footprint serves as a powerful statement on the strength of the AMD processor roadmap, as well as the demand that exists for AMD technology in Dell products. We look forward to working closely with Dell in bringing to their customers the benefits of AMD64 technology.
