^^^^ yeah you caught the point...
people in tight budget can really build a good enough AMD system at dirt cheap... intels case is different and AFAIK most computer users are those who need a computer to use it for basic tasks like word processing and net surfing for which even lowly celerons will do.... and i come across people daily who have Pentium 3, 128 mb ram, 20 gb hdd, onboard gfx, at their homes just because they done need anything better... and thats true...
its the end user's choice...
and those kinda people who look for upgrades, AMD fits in.... giving unbeatable VFM...
For people who have dough and will... Go Intel... Im not a Pro-AMD buff whos gonna make his day by drifting customers to intel..
....
and whatever i was talking about... i didnt actually mean to compare AMD and Intel products side by side....
I mean to compare Intel and AMD as COMPANIES, INDUSTRIES...
i mean im comparing their history, market records, influential and a bit of hit products....
and as Intels had enough of Monopoly in Processors like Microsoft in OS market, i thought AMD is a better in terms of COMPANY.. at least till date...
intel can do wrong and get time to correct it and again do it and set it right... (many of us know about the bugs in earlier core 2 duos as well)
its had enough lead earlier when AMD was not there!! so that works out like insurance.....
its like a Linux distro coming UP and occasionaly beating windows... i mean thats what i would compare it with whenever AMD provides better solutions...
