Honestly, I dont want AMD to have to "play dirty" just to remain competative to Intel. I hate the fact that Intel (in my own words) "skewed" the processor speeds in their favor.

If we, the enthusiasts/powerusers, can get the word out to the general public that you dont need a 4Ghz intel becuase a 2.6ghz AMD is just as fast, the world would be a much better place. Then AMD can survive without having to be (in my own words again) "deceptive" to the general public in order to get/stay ahead of the competition.

ALL OF THIS IS MY OWN PERSONAL OPINION!!!
