They have the two processor suppot but not the 4. Also they may have to work awhile to develop a reputation in 2 processor systems before people accept buying AMD in greater numbers in that area. The P4 at .18 generates a bit more hat then an XP or MP Athlon with equivilent performance at .18. Of course Intel has .13 P4s available now while AMD will probably not have desktop .13 Athlons during the 1st half of this year and as of this moment doesn't even have .13 laptop CPUs (atleast in systems for sale, they might be sampleing but I can't go out and buy one now).

And of course whatever AMD has it will take awhile to build a reputation. Intel allready has that reputation and for now it is a big advantage for them.
