when i was researching my recent CPU & mobo upgrade, my impression was
that right now:

   * Intel still produces the absolute fastest systems
   * AMD offers better cost/computational-power ratio just below the fastest
   * Intel offers better value down in the midrange
   * AMD does better in the low end
