Petz,

AMD's Opteron marketing has been very good, mostly because
they've taken the "high road" emphasizing performance, not
just trying to compete on price. It didn't hurt that AMD held
both integer and floating point performance crowns, and at
the lowest power, for two years until Woodcrest arrived.


Yes, it has been better. But like you said, they lead Intel for for two years so...

It will be interesting to see how they market Barcelona if
it doesn't win them back the performance crown. My gut feeling
is that they are going to put emphasis on power efficiency.
