Chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices gained a pinch of market share year over year against rival Intel in a market that seems to be improving.
Sunnyvale, Calif.-based AMD saw its market share in the second quarter of 2003 inch up to 15.7 percent, a tenth-of-a-point increase from its market share of 15.6 percent in the same period a year ago, according to statistics compiled by Mercury Research.
Intel, meanwhile, saw its market share slip to 82.5 percent in the second quarter, from 82.8 percent in the same period the year before. Other manufacturers, a grouping that includes Transmeta, increased their collective market share from 1.7 percent to 1.8 percent.
