Dan, Re: "Wouldn't it be clearer to say that experience has shown that most benchmarks are created to favor whatever Intel's flavor of the month is? The processor doesn't favor the benchmark, the benchmark favors the processor."

That's like you saying, "I'm not ever wrong... it's just the rest of the world that doesn't understand the way things work."

Intel's processors are in the vast majority of systems out there. Software developers will no doubt tune their applications to benefit the most amount of users, which means optimizations that favor Intel. All AMD can do is follow in the trail that Intel blazes.
