You're joking right? AMD performs better than intel in office type tests.
The last few Athlon XP chips were slaughtered by intel. The 3200+ wasn't even close to te benchmarks of the P4 3.2
Earlier on the XP hardware was competing well with the P4,,,especially when intel was still using the wellington boards.
But ya, The P4 architecture has been able to go a lot farther than the AMD during this last stretch. I'm also not very impressed with AMD's marketing. Calling their chip 3200+ wasn't very truthful.
But, the performance for most users isn't noticable so AMD wins when it comes to pricing.
