AMD Buys Xilinx

Wow, I’m not sure what to make of this news. AMD will acquire Xilinx in an all-stock transaction valued at $35 billion.

So many questions… Will AMD do a better job of integrating Xilinx than Intel did with Altera? Will search engines be able to find all those useful Xillinx white papers and app notes when they’ve been moved to an amd.com domain?
