If you want to buy AMD and believe it gives you good value for money/performance ratio, please by all means go ahead. Granted they do have a few skus that are actually a good value proposition.

If you are buying their procs just to support them and be a fanboy to prove AMD will survive against Intel - then you are no different from those idiot investors who are dumping hundreds of millions(billions) in investment down the drain QUARTER AFTER QUARTER. If anyone who actually know their financial history dating back 10-15 years would be sufficient to know that investors hoping for ROi back in that amount of time is living in fantasy land.

Welcome to the Capitalist world. Like i said there ARE some skus in AMD that are of value, and to those who insists on better performances and AMD happen to have none naturally they will buy Intel EE versions. You cant expect Intel to sell EE(no competition from competitor) cheap can you? would you if you were Intel?

"Then are u trying to say we should dump our moneyh to a company that is already soo rich so that in the end they can charge us the users a premium even for their value cpu when there is no more competition? " - i can honestly tell you this looks like someone smokin great stuff sitting in his room too long. Time to wake up and see the world - the REAL world.

BTW MS's position is even better than *ntel's, and i dont see you singing a different tune like ' support Linux/ dont use Windoze' ?

wow....fanboys strike 1 - sane thinkin - 0. Nuff said, proves the fanboys seriously blind.

1) i never said all amd are trashs, i even go to the extend of applauding them for some great skus.
2) Last few replies proves that fanboys are aggresive when their territory is 'encroached' and the 1st response would be name calling which imo is pretty lame and 'uneducated'
3) My reply is relevent so that TS would go and do a research of which amd skus would be suitable/ performance/price ratio vs the quad cores he is looking at.
4)Goldmine in years to come - apparently 15 years isnt long enuff....right.
