If the government tries to implement back door crypto using their own crypto, they would have to first make it pretty uncrackable. But that was what they said for 40-bit RSA, public key encryption, etc. There was this company that offered money for people who could crack these algorithms. Later they found new ways of searching for the keys that reduced the supposed polynomial time increase for each bit gradually down to just quadratic time. When the hardware improves, and the algorithms used can be reduced to a quadratic increase for each digit, its just a matter of time before its cracked. And then of course, with quantum computing coming soon, there also comes the use of superposition to solve the algorithms in linear time, until quantum encryption comes along, which'll be pretty damn chancy to crack, because of how it works.
Da main difference is that since da PIV's use a 400Mhz FSB, unlike Athlon, they can increase their clock speeds much faster than the athlons,which generally only increase every 66Mhz. So intel can bump up their speed much faster than AMD, and win da speed race.
