AMD’s President & CEO Dr. Hector Ruiz, is passionate about the pivotal role that technology can play as an instrument for social change, growth, and economic development. At the 2004 World Economic Forum in Davos, he announced AMD’s ambitious 50X15 initiative, a global commitment to empower 50% of the world’s population with basic Internet service and computing access by the year 2015. This computer based on the AMD Geode processor costs $185 without monitor.
I am really glad that AMD is at the forefront of extending the reach of the IT revolution to the 5 billion people in low-income countries.
