PowerPCs were great. Almost worth buying an apple

I don't think they are used in xboxs or PS3s though.

I'm sure I read somewhere that they might have had some relation to those consoles. Can't quite remember what though, or if it were true or not.

I'm still with AMD, I'm hoping their new stuff will kick the crap outta the Core 2, but for now I admit that Intel is better. I like AMD's prices a LOT better though.

Careful, did you see what I posted about the new Barcelonas barely competing with the current Xeons. And SUPPOSEDLY, they were better than the next generation of Xeons. BUZZ! WRONG!

Don't believe the Hype

I love my Pentium D 940! I have no immediate need to repalce it, nor do I forsee a need in the next 2-3 years.

I am using AMDs for my computer builds and they seem to run well. I am currently in the process of building an intel computer.
