<I didn't realize that one has to distinguish between "generations" rather than simply look at contemporary products.>

AMD is blaring to the whole world that the Athlon is "seventh-generation technology." Yet if you consider that AMD's "sixth-generation technology" has fallen far behind Intel's own "sixth-generation technology," you can understand how AMD is playing relativism here.

In other words, what could be considered a 7 on AMD's scale of generations could be considered a 6.5 on Intel's scale. That's still good enough to launch AMD out of bottom-feeder status, but not enough to claim a huge lead of innovation over Intel.
