Re: Ouch! The new 65nm part lost 9 out of 9 benchmarks in performance and performance per watt to the equivalently priced Intel's e6600.

Yep, retail prices are a joke for AMD's higher-end X2 CPUs. Very poor performance/$ compared to Intel's offerings. On the other hand AMD is handing out single-core 939 CPUs like candy. Perhaps when the AM2 shortages end AMD will be handing them all out like candy...to the OEMs if nothing else.
