Week April 18-24 2004 was the first week that AMD outsold Intel in Desktop PCs. Even with Dell on their side, Intel losed for the first time ever. And with all the news about Dell joining AMD's program, it looks even worse for Intel. What would this mean?
Well, with AMD taking over the market, prices for PCs will go way down and technology will increase at a much faster pace.
More information here.

Well, as long as AMD keeps having the best price/performance ratio and the fastest CPUs, I will stay with them.
Of course this would mean I would always stay with them considering they will be the first to release dual core CPUs with Hyper Threading at the beginning of next year.

I said Dual Cores and Hyper Threading.
AMD will be the first with dual cores and the first to use that with HT.

Remember AP, the price/performance ratio is the same. Remember how that was proven to you a few months ago...

Uh, the Athlon 64 FX-53 is a lot cheaper than the Pentium 4 3.4GHz EE.
