Elmer,

Re: crazyoldman, consider the situation. Intel's current 6th generation processor is neck 'n neck with AMD's newest 7th+ generation processor at 1 GHz. Intel has spent 4-5 years developing a new generation processor. Someone has suggested that it might be no faster than a 550MHz Celeron. You think I might be gullible for suggesting that this is ridiculous? Is this really the position you want to take?


To put it bluntly, YES.
Intel has become the "I've fallen and I can't get my production up" company. Let me put it another way, Intel is behaving like AMD did in the "old days". They can't seem to do anything right in their core business. They seem much better at the moment in generating "other income", I wonder if they need all that "other income" to offset shortfalls in the core business?

Take a good hard look at the situation. Something's wrong at Intel and while at the same time AMD is on a gravy train to Fat City(tm-KapKan4u)!!!
