I am actually not against Intel whatsoever. I can admit that they currently produce the worlds fastest consumer processors without a doubt and if I were in the market for a new Windows based laptop it would without a doubt be an HP ENVY with an i7 processor.
My user name was created over tens years ago when I first got in the game and when AMD and Intel were in the race to 1GHz (AMD won). I would however still use AMD processors in my desktop builds because just like Canon, I am brand loyal. Not because of superiority (which I can clearly admit). That and the price to performance ratio on the AMD black line is excellent. 1100T 6 core would be my choice (as of right now anyway).
