Ten it must realy bug you that amd outsell celeron.ask yourself why? celeron started out more expensive, cache less, 3Dless, 66 mhz.vs 100mhz. maybe some consumers are not educatated so they buy that intel inside stuff. but when they find out they could of had a V8. the next time they buy or upgrade they have a bad taste in there mouth for Intel who hosed them the first time around. This is especialy true for the fun stuff when it does'nt deliver good internet or games. AMd is slowly changing the landscape of consumer opinion. consumers are not interested in banechmarks Geeks are. since you are a geek you identify closly with the benchmakes, since you work for Intel, it is difficult for you to see the AMD advantages. I submit you have lost your objectivity, perhaps becasue of your invoirment.
