I tend to prefer Intel for laptops, as it means certainty of open drivers for pretty much all components. (The wired NIC, the wireless card, the integrated graphics) For servers & workstations I have specific demands that Intel is unable to meet, so you will see me use AMD there exclusively. As this is drifing off into a different discussion entirely, I'll stop there unless you want me to elaborate. In summary: Both have their place, and I wouldn't limit myself to just one in all situations. > Phil Regards, Tony V.
