How can this "war" be over with the Wolfdales are coming in Jan? I'm salavating over the $183 3.0 GHz Core 2 Duo. Then the Nehalems in H2 2008? I'm afraid it ain't over until AMD is cornered to the low price low performance end- which is sad. My last three systems were AMD. I certainly don't want them to go away, but I'm not going to buy an underperforming CPU...

The war is still very much alive. The second battle begins Jan 20 when Intel sells $200 quads.


I hear AMD borrowed a billion dollars, to buy a golden incinerator to burn money in.
Might be just a rumour though.
Incidentally the money has to be burned slowly to prevent the gold getting too hot and melting, I'm told.
