I have to disagree with you AMD fans, I am an Intel Fan. Been Intel since my first 286.I feel, that Intel Processors are superior (from what I have seen) in almost every task. Such as Word Processing, Photo Editing, Video Editing and Gaming.I Think AMD Processors take to long to initilize when using windows. I am using an Intel Based MacBook and it is great, everything I do runs smoothly and it never freezes (but thats not really down to the processor). I also find that the Intel Dual Cores work better as I think it has a better process management than the AMD which fills one core and then moves on to the next while the intel distributes it evenly.
