You know what I find the most interesting on the Intel vs AMD in relation to Intel's alleged secret contracts with Dell? I know someone that owns a computer store. All of the computers are hand made. It's a larger mom-and-pop joint. They sell AMD and Intel computer side by side. Sometimes they have more Intels for sale than AMDs, and sometimes vice versa. They admit that each has it's advantages and disadvantages. But.. here's the kicker....
Which company's processor is in more computers that end up being returned to the store because the performance is not "up to par"? AMDs are returned almost 2 to 1 over Intels if you compare the number sold against the number returned. They sell alot more Intel computers right now,but the ratio is still about the same.
Now, I'm not going to sit here and tell you that AMD must suck twice as much as Intel, or anything like that. I just find it fascinating that AMD users bring their computers back more often than Intel.. just something to think about. I have no intention of guessing why this is so, just knowing that it is the case is quite interesting.
