says who? istanbul is coming in a month and it will be a 6 core cpu plus they will make a mcm chip that will be 12 cores just like core 2 is so you could have up to 48 cores on one system. to me i think that alone will compete fairly just because of the abundance of cores. also amd is doing fine on the server side right now they have been doing better than intel there for years.
