RE:<AMD may even keep a small performance advantage. I just don't see business customers moving away from Intel, without a significant reason.>

Scumbria,

Hehe, we are looking at the same scenario from totally opposite perspectives. My contention is that in the presence of a price and performance competitive fully oem supported (top 3, mainstream business line) offering from AMD I don't see 100% of business customers sticking with Intel without a significant reason. :)

PS: If a top 3 OEM fully supports an AMD offering then Intel's reputation is not a significant reason because far short of 100% of business customers put so much stock in Intel's reputation that they will be unwilling to consider the top 3 OEM's reputation instead. (something like... if Compaq is supporting it then we don't care what's in it cause Compaq will take care of us if there are any problems)
