It could really have made a difference this quarter, it seems, but that’s life, I guess.

No that's AMD. If I could buy a dual core $400.00 Athalon 64 desktop today I would, but I can’t. Six months from now when they may be available there may be data on Intel’s 65 nm parts which would change my buying decision.

"The research firm said Intel also expects to regain the technology lead from Advanced Micro Devices (nyse: AMD - news - people ) in server chips in the first quarter of 2006 with the introduction of dual-core processors for servers."

Based on what, I wonder. From released information, Intel might be able to pull up even by then. And that pretty much assumes AMD sits on their hands until then with no speed bumps. True, that is about all AMD will have out by then, but that still is a compelling product.
