AMD CEO Dirk Meyer Resigns

I caught wind of this late yesterday and you beat me to the punch. It'll be interesting to see who takes over and what way they take the company. I'm all about AMD's GPU's but the only thing I really like about their CPU's is the fact that AMD actually values backwards compatibility although AM3+ will kick off the next round unless what I read about AM2+ CPU's not being compatible is wrong.
