Intel may be the major CPU, but AMD is gaining rapidly in market share.

IF the P4 is SO much better:
please explain this:

1866MHZ athlon XP beats the shit out of a P4 at 2600 MHz.
There are TONS of benchmarks that illustrate this point.
AMD is cheaper in cost. AMD kicks Intel's ass even at lower MHz. AMD's IPC is 9. Intel's is 6.

That link is to a picture of a hammer!! I don't think that it had much to do with processors.

I just don't like AMD. Intel chips have less problems, and they are more widely supported than AMD (lets see you find over 100 AMD Athlon XP boards). Plus, as I've already stated, game developers tend to think that Intel is faster, and better.

Now, as long as you are not a mac fan, I'm happy for you. The last thing we IBM users need is division among the ranks.

But, Intel is and will remain my prefrance.
