Just FYI, from what I've read over the past couple of years, currently you will still get more bang-per-pound-spent going with intel processors (ever since the "Core" architecture basically) and they use less power than comparable AMD chips too. Although it should also be said, opinion in the press is that AMD may very well take back the mantle later this year/early next when AMD release a new hybrid processor range integrated with high performance ATi GPU (a SoC in reality), but this is a way off yet and early ones will undoubtedly be quite pricey.
