Microsoft blames its own limited portfolio for absence of AMD chips in Surface
Original: Microsoft says its own limited portfolio is why AMD chips are missing from Surface devices
Microsoft has attributed the absence of AMD processors in its Surface device lineup to the company's own limited product portfolio, according to a report by TweakTown. The statement suggests internal constraints rather than technical or business issues with AMD are behind the long-running Intel-heavy strategy of the Surface line, drawing attention in semiconductor and hardware circles.
Why now: It offers an official explanation for a longstanding question about why Surface devices have never used AMD silicon.
