AMD strictly moderated (AMD)

Yes, Dell's the same way. The business models are built a little
bit better, they will provide for spares for a longer period of
time and I'd guess that the service is better. With Dell, you
get US telephone support instead of service from India.

I was VERY disappointed with HP on the r4000. I would have bought one had I not discovered the single-channel memory issue.

That system has more power than the average user needs anyways
but I'd guess that I'd notice the difference in memory performance.

Given the current competitive situation, I'd guess that AMD would
be pushing vendors to go with the best performance options
available.
