SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--AMD:

“AMD recognizes the demand for rich, high-quality, multimedia content on the PC”

WHAT:	AMD (NYSE:AMD) Senior Developer Relations Engineer Jay Taylor will host a webcast to discuss the benefits of the increasingly popular Home Theater PC (HTPC). With AMD-based platforms from a number of trusted partners and a TV Tuner card such as the ATI TV Wonder^TM 650 PCIe® combo card, consumers can experience true streaming HD-quality TV on their Home Theater PC. This webcast will explain not only how to get online TV content directly onto the PC, but will also talk about the benefits and value it provides those looking to cut their monthly cable or satellite costs.
WHEN:	Wednesday, May 27; 12:00 p.m. ET/9:00 a.m. PT
WHY:	As consumers use their PCs more dynamically for multimedia purposes, taking this a step further and delivering feature-rich television content to the PC is in high demand. Subject to your monitor’s resolution, it’s even possible to use your PC to view that content directly on your TV as part of a superior home theater experience. With AMD’s advanced graphics capabilities and strong platform support this is attainable for consumers worldwide. What’s more, cutting the cord on a satellite or cable connection and relying on over-the-air TV for your PC can help eliminate costly satellite and/or cable costs.
