Re: look at the power for the 65nm 65W TDP 2.6GHz X2 5000+

Pete,

Trying to discuss something with him is like arguing with a goldfish, or a 3 year old - it's pointless. Obviously AMD CPUs have much lower idle power than equivalent Intel chips and obviously most chips spend almost all their time at idle.

While quite significant, it's not an overwhelming factor - you'd think he could be rational about it. It's a fact and it doesn't mean the end of Intel, still, something like you-know-who reacts to those facts like a hip-hopper reacts to an insult to his favorite thug.
