Hello Elmer,

Re: You'd never make that statement if AMD was winning the benchmarks.

Probably not, but we both know "bench marking" is a game and not necessairly related to real world performance which it is assumed to do.

Re: I know this is a shock but "Best Buy" is not the only place on earth where CuMines are sold and one salesman's comments should not be construed to reflect the worldwide market.

Yes, I know this, but I'm starting to see a pattern here. Everyone across America is reporting similar observations at various store, European Intel dealers are giving up on getting processors from Intel and are building and selling AMD based systems. Something's wrong at Intel!

All I can say is Willy better be really good and on time or all hell's going to break out in this processor market and AMD is coming out on top. Looks like Intel is playing "you bet your farm" on this one. I never thought I'd see it come to this.
