    In the enthusiast market, which isn't a huge portion of the market - but is an important one for word of mouth - Intel's been getting thrashed hard for several years, more or less since the A64 hit the market. AMD's been cutting into their server sector too.

    This processor does look sweet though.

    With my own "time for new pc" rapidly approaching I have been wondering myself.

    Still "bang for buck" wise AMD's 4400 and 4800 seems the way to go. Even if Intel really does retake the crown (companies lie?... never) their price will be way to high for most of the married with children and mortgage crowd to buy.

    I wouldn't get two excited, AMD will have their answer for it. However, if the Conroe really outmuscles what AMD comes up with dollar per dollar then I will be making my first Intel processor purchase.
