According to the article, Intel has plans to turn the performance table around with AMD. From the article: 'Finally, it looks like Intel has learned from its mistake and secretly prepping a surprise for the rest of the industry. According to the information we received, Intel is currently working on a desktop, dual-core Dothan microprocessor with SSE3 instruction set that Intel plans to launch sometime in the future. Whether the launch will take place this year or in 2006 is currently unknown.'"

WIPROism
GE has a cow. You take 49% of the milk.

You have old stubborn cows. You sell them as pet dogs to unsuspecting small businessmen.

"...secretly prepping a surprise for the rest of the industry"
uh, hate to burst your bubble, but I got this nagging suspicion that somebody from AMD reads slashdot.
"What does slashdotting mean?"
"You've never heard of slashdot?"
"I know it makes websites not work."
