AMD, the second-largest computer processor maker in the world, has announced today that it will try to regain relevance in the server market with its first new design since 2003.
Since 2006, AMD has fallen from a 26 percent share in the server chip market to just 5.2 percent. Rival Intel controls the other 94.8 percent.
The new chips, based on the "Interlagos" design, will sell for $125-$1019.

We've got to get relevance back. We want to drive rapid expansion of our market share.
