End of the Road For AMD's Geode Chip 123

An anonymous reader writes "AMD has no replacement planned for the aging Geode low-power chip, creating uncertainty for its use in products like future XO laptops made by One Laptop Per Child. There won't be a Geode successor and the company has no core microarchitecture planned to replace the chip, AMD executives said. The comments end speculation about the future of Geode, an integrated chip used in netbooks like OLPC's XO laptop, ultramobile PCs and devices like set-top boxes."

Currently I am employed by Intel Corp as a software engineer. My job at Intel is to design and develop applications to help the motherboard engineers do their jobs. I also develop a lot of applications for process automation. If my job fun? Well it really is, no hard schedules, meaning since our group doesn't sell product we don't have to worry about meeting hard deadlines. We also get to pick what applications we get to develop. To wind down I play games, lately it is Dragon Court.
