Core2 looks amazing. Intel apparently is sick of eating AMDs dust all these years. AMD won't go out of business, but this certainly goes a long way toward driving them down into a hole.

Intel is nowhere near driving AMD into a hole.

Let's talk in 18 months. I think Intel is going to take back some market share. I'm generally an AMD fanboy, but Intel beat AMD at their own game with this one, and this is the first time I can ever recall seeing the more powerful Intel chip cheaper than the AMD counterpart.
