And I am an AMD fan, but in the laptop area since the Pentium M came out Intel has kicked the crap out of AMD. And the Intel's Core 2 Duo has been laying to boots to AMD since it was released. AMD's XP processor line was king of the desktop hill for a few years, but was almost like they took a slapshot at Intel at the end of a period, and now Intel is taking it to them where it counts.
