And don't take this the wrong way, but I still haven't heard a rational
anti-Intel argument in this thread. OK, so they overhype their products,
but that's hardly something that sets them apart from the crowd these
days, and anyone that can read a benchmark shouldn't be taken in.
They've also been slow to release some drivers in the past, but unlike
many vendors they do release specs. Is the avoidance just a habit from
days past, or is there any actual basis for it today?
