Re: "AMD's market cap is under $14 billion up from under $2 billion while inteL's is almost $450 billion. Both have similar technological sophistication (with an apparent edge in favor of AMD) and similar production capacity at their respective upper ends (with an apparent substantial but not decisive edge in favor of inteL;"

DRBES whatever you're smoking put it down and get some air. Intel has about 4x the highend capacity of AMD and at least 3 more fabs in various stages of construction. At least 2 of the new ones are about 2x the size of AMDs largest fab (fab25) and both of those will produce 12 inch wafers.
