intel for my last 4 main rig builds, did use amd for my HTPC because it was cheaper and had a low power demand.

Still no real competition until AMD releases a new technology.

Intel for my last 6 CPUs, and even so far as to go intel chipsets for my last two motherboards.

Only AMD CPU action going was a recommendation for a gentleman who was building a mid-range computer to be used mainly for audio editing / input through a set-top box. Gaming wasn't a priority.

His main requirement was the ability to run 3 monitors and multi-task at the same time.

One of the new ATI chipset boards with on-board vid paired with a HD3650 fit the monitor requirement, and powering it with a relatively inexpensive quad Phenom should suit his multi-tasking needs to at "T".

Current Desktop and Laptop are using Core 2 Dou's. My two systems before that were AMD and my two systems before them were Intel again. I go back and forth a lot. :)
