Hey, I respect his dedication and abilities, but he ain't half blind much of the time.
To be perfectly fair, if the P-M is taken into account, things aren't <i>entirely</i> in AMD's favour. But until Intel really starts the ball rolling with a nice (desktop) line up based on that tech, it's all AMD ATM. If I was to buy a new <i>laptop</i> now, it'd be a P-M one.
Desktop-wise, I'm happy to sit here with my A64 system and see what happens in the next couple of years. I really don't care more for either company.
I care about ease of cooling (noise), value for money and performance. And yes, this is all (bar all the dually arguments, which are more logical extrapolation & [admittedly not very intensive] research) based on <i>personal</i> experience, before anyone starts shouting about me just 'following the pack'.
Seriously though, how many Intel V AMD threads are there going to be? My money's on Transmeta.
