Yep, not to mention they just spent the bulk of their warchest. This might be a mistake, just as Intel releases Conroe, which honestly kicks AMDs x2 in the butt

I hope this won't be AMD's doom. I've been a fan for a LONG time. (Used to build Novell Netware 3.x servers with AMD 486/DX2-66 CPU, 64MB RAM, 1GB HDD.)

Don't worry. From what I hear, there are some exciting things on the horizon for AMD. While this year will be kind of a regrouping, inch forward type year with incremental improvements like the recently released AM2 chipset which *finally* adds support for DDR2, 2007 should hold some more fireworks for the Intel/AMD battle.
