I hear you, brother. I agree with everything you've said, its all rock solid, true. Just another question - would it be possible to base the idea that amd designs cores better as they get more work done per clock cycle? As opposed to a intel a LOT more work done....

All over the map here, huh? 100 random samples of each would hardly have anything to do with the server market And, unfortunately most packaged deals that entice with low prices that the general population buys do have cheap *** everything. They probably don't have our nifty mobos that have temp features, or if they do they're not set uo properly, they have sleeve bearing fans that just get by when they're new and clean, have psus that just squeak by, etc., etc.
Most people (not us) and companies do not build their own and wouldn't have a clue or want one. And they unknowingly punish their equipment as a result.
BTW, in the server market, I wouldn't hesitate in the least to recomend or build a dual MP system in a proper environment. I've built TV studios where the equipment is even more finicky and WAY more expensive, and we make it work for decades without downtime. but those are professional markets and proper engineering are the way of things.
That's all, I'm off to L.A.

Why all the fuzz about the 64 Bit OS.... LINUX IS FREE
yes the 64 BIT version of Mandrake is out and free already
so why bother getting Win$$ 64 bit when you can get Linux Mandrake 64 Bit for free?

all this hype......I will be waiting when the dust settles and cpu prices drop on the p4 2.53 (which a hit over here in Korea earlier this year)
I want to get my hands on on of them.
As for AMD....all of these arguements are really tempting me to build an AMD system. I have only built 2 systems (intel) so i am more comfortable with them....but intel's 3ghz coming out...and AMD 64.........that means that in a few monthes I can upgrade my intel based systems ( to arround 2.53 ghz p4) and start looking into AMD....
so for now I will keep watching and listening to the arguements.
Lost 10,000 miles from home and loving it!!
