Intel dual core chips inelegant, analyst says

Nathan Brookwood, of Insight 64, was talking to local Austin Texas newspaper The Statesman about the mighty battle between Intel and AMD. AMD has a serious site down there in Austin.

Brookwood told the newspaper that most computer science people think what AMD has done with its dual core processors as "more sophisticated and elegant" than Intel's attempts.

But, he cautioned, the question had to be asked whether AMD's elegance meant better performance, and, if so, whether performance meant more sales.

Now Nathan's not exactly saying that Intel's designs are ugly. But he's a born diplomat. If AMD's designs are sophisticated, does that mean Intel's dual core designs are uncouth, Nathan?
