Hmmm..., perhaps I should configure myself an AMD system once again, and then allocate the extra budget for a top-notch LCD monitor for example... (I noticed that a high-end AMD platform is still significantly more affordable than an entry-level Intel Core i7 platform...)

Somehow AMD is deprived, but INTEL is always too lucky (). A casual observation around me:

- All of the desktop computers which my family members have brought in the past have all been INTEL based. (Somehow the decision had all been happening automatically - just like second nature...)

- All of my cousin's computers are INTEL based...

- Even today, the desktop and notebook computers belonging to my two older brothers, which they just brought, are all INTEL based. (Even all of my dad's past and present notebook computers are powered by INTEL, heck, even the notebook computer that I am using right now to type out this post is INTEL powered.)

- At university, all of the countless of computers in the library are powered by INTEL...Recently, all of the old systems were replaced with new systems, and they are all also powered by INTEL...

- All of the workstation computers in the multiple computer labs of my university are all powered by INTEL.

- Cybercafes all around me are primarily using INTEL powered rigs, and running on INTEL powered servers.

I believe that all of the servers in colleges, universities, and offices are all running on INTEL as well...

However, my next rig might not be powered by INTEL...
