What do you base this on?

ATI

revenues of approximately US $2.22 billion, ATI has more than 3,400 employees in the Americas, Europe and Asia.

nVidia

NVIDIA has over 2,000 employees worldwide with revenue approaching $2 billion annually.

Hardly call that far larger. In fact sales wise nVidia is just behind and should pass them soon enough. Looks like ATI has a lot of bloated useless staff though.

Time for some mass firings!

NVIDIA's 2005 revenues were $2.38 billion, and they hold 51% of the marketshare.

Still think ATi is a FAR larger company?

ATI has products in more areas than nvidia (like digital TV chips, etc.). ATI has more employees than nvidia. I think we need to define larger.

Pepsi has just surpassed Coke in term of market share.

Depending on how you define "large", nVidia _might_ be Pepsi.

RC Cola is the BEST according to that review, just like I've always said.

 

[cHeeZeFacTory]

Pepsi maybe a underdog to Coke in the soda pop business, but Pepsi-cola Company makes a lot more than coke through their snack food/sports drink business.

:thumbsup:

I favor RC too. Much more sweeter and smoother (not as gassy) as Coke. It comes close to Pepsi but RC seems to have even less "gassy" feel in comparison to RC.

I second that... I go out of my way to buy it when I can.

Goes to show that the best products aren't necessarily the ones that sell best.

 

[drinkmorejava]

um, AMD should be with coke and nvidia. We're not talking about underdogs, its social stereotyping and classification.

 

[paulxcook]

Ok, how about "Underdog perception".

 

[Zaitsevs]

yeah, I understand what you are saying. I do that too.

Underdog: ATI, AMD, Pepsi, Chevrolet, Reebok, and Burger King

I dunno. Maybe my mind just visualizes things strangely and none of you will know what I'm talking about.

I need more to do at work.

EDIT: Added Intel and AMD.

when did ati become the underdog and nvidia the favorite? i would certainly put nvidia and amd together with pepsi. not sure the cars and fast food belong tho.

 

[paulxcook]

I suppose it's just perception, I (and I think many others) are under the impression that nVidia is the larger, stronger corporation. I'm not sure why this is.

 

[drinkmorejava]

woaahhh there, nvidia with pepsi; do you realise the world would like implode on itself, it's already bad enough with AMD and pepsi.

 

[TallBill]

Wow.. to bad that your underdogs are either top runners or close behind.

Meh, despite their awesome commercials, BK is more than a few steps behind the global dominance of McDonalds.

 

[Hammerhead]

Fav: Best Buy, Wal-Mart,

Underdog: Circuit City, K-Mart

 

[Slacker]

It wasnt all that long ago that nvidia was an underdog........
