Yay for the government. I prefer AMD over Intel because I can get great performance very cheaply, but I concede that Intel trounces AMD's processors. If I could I would build/buy an i7 rig but I don't have that kind of money. All that being said I have an iMac and a Macbook Pro both with Intel processors. #intelantitrust
Great, now chip prices go up again because Intel has to cover the costs of all the lawyers. Thank you government for screwing us over.... #intelantitrust
@szrimaging: And then people buy more AMD, AMD will get more money to research more and we get faster processors without Intels douchebaggery. Yay government! #intelantitrust

@Bluecold: The problem is, people are sheep to the marketing mainstream. As long as Intel is the "brand name" people will still buy them over the "untrustworthy value option". Not to mention, anyone who is a performance freak will work on getting the better chip, so AMD better hurry up and do a leap frog.
I, for one, am going Intel in the next build because AMD can't compete when building a high-end photo/video rig. #intelantitrust
@szrimaging: And what if you can get 2 Opteron's on a server board with loads of RAM for the same price as a single i7 setup? You'll get the Opterons because they combined are faster. #intelantitrust
