If you are talking performance..... obviously Intel. I can't see how anyone could argue that point. AMD has done some smart things with their pricing to keep customers since they have fell behind as far as performance is concerned.

I agree that AMD does have some very nice budget processors, but I don't see how you can compare Intel to Macs. AMD's the one going around making their Phenoms look like the "next best thing" with tag lines like "the first REAL Quad core" and stuff like that.

I voted AMD mainly because my experience with them has been better than with intels. The only reason my current rig is intel is because they are the best choice for performance at the moment.

Yes,

My AMD Processor it working very well, i like them.

As for Intel - they are good from something, like a mac, my friend has one and it is working fine. But if i had it my way i would have an AMD processor in it.
