Just curious, are you pro Intel or pro AMD and why? Please explain beyond the technical aspect. I don't want it becomes another tread on CPU architecture debate. It is a chance to explain your personal preference/situation. No flame please. If you don't like to answer, just stay away.
I used to pro Intel, not strongly but more out of familiarity, but now I am personally rooting AMD to do well. One simple reason: when is the last time Intel sells its top-of-the-line CPU for mere $350?? If not for a viable AMD, I bet we would have to pay $850 or maybe $1000 for the 1.7 GHz P4 (or 1 GHz PIII if AMD totally screwed up) today.
**Spin all you want, but we the paying consumers will have the final word**
