RE:"Yeah, INTC has thrown megabucks and who knows what other marketing tactics at P4 promotion over the past 9 months and continues to do so with mediocre, at best, results"

From what I can tell, the consumer is suckering for the Mhz Sells Intel tactics. P4 systems are plentiful. A lot of consumers still haven't heard of AMD.

RE:"Personally I like AMD's relatively low cost XP marketing campaign as, after all, when the marketing dust settles, the consumer will usually prefer the best price/performance selection"

AMD has a marketing campaign? All I see is that Intel Alien ad on TV or the Intel jingle everytime an OEM puts up an ad.
AMD has nothing...just one or two desktops advertized in the sunday paper flyer. EVen P-III notebooks are more plentiful because A4 units seem to be out of stock. This could be good or this could be bad.
