Pete, don't be goaded. You don't look any better when you berate the competition in this way.

Even if somebody starts a verbal attack, now is not the time to react in similar manners. For example, some people in those for'n lands attacked non-Muslim beliefs. It does not mean that all Moslems attacked non-Muslim beliefs, but some Christians took offense to the extreme by posting a sign in front of a church saying, in a most racist (religionist?) manner, that "ALLAH is NOT the God of AMERICA".

This is OT in itself, but I want you to understand that people in this whole Intel/AMD speculation war will have heightened tensions and their natures will strongly urge them to act in similar manners. Tcmay's comment was stupid, yes, and it was an obvious goad, but you (in this particular heated conversational climate) should instead respond with civility and logic, explaining why you think that the Athlon has advantages in areas other than games.

PS: (edit) I wasn't saying that tcmay is stupid. I just wanted to clarify that.
