Forgot this is a very nice comment about pricing too"

"The CRN Test Center has discovered that AMD's latest processor outperforms Intel's for most business applications at a significantly lower price, even though the AMD systems tested had lower clock speeds and slower memory. "
Two AMD 1.2GHz Athlon systems,one with PC133 memory, the other with Double Date Rate (DDR) RAM,outperformed an Intel 1.5GHz Pentium 4 system by 13.20 percent and 19.29 percent, respectively.

Based on memory, motherboard and processor street prices, the AMD DDR system would cost around $200 less than the Intel system, even though DDR will cost more than the Rambus memory used for the Intel Pentium 4. Similarly, the AMD PC133 system would cost around $560 less than the Intel system.
