AMD: Other than a headhunter from some undiscovered tribe in New Guinea, I'm probably the last person on Earth who has never played a video game. So all the technical specs mean nothing to me, but here's a couple of reader comments to an article on the Geek-oriented website, Techspot: http://www.techspot.com/news/52188-next-xbox-to-feature-amd-processor-not-compatible-with-360-titles.html I own Intel and recommend AMD on notebooks; and I think this is very healthy to the market. I wouldn't want by any means Intel selling there too, AMD deserves to have a bigger profit that hopefully will be invested in more R&D. Nice play by AMD, scooping all the big orders for their APU-s. And this is Intel taking up for having prices above the competition.
