It's fun to see the fanboys be thrown into a position they have zero chance of defending and watch them squirm. (Typically, I've always seen MANY more AMD fanboys than Intel fanboys. Not sure if this is how it is or just luck on where I go).
If you are referring to the "runspeed/speedhacking issue" dont blame AMD, the fault was with XP. It was the OS's thread scheduler that was the problem. If you assigned the game to only 1 core it worked fine.
