By simplifying it, you can give someone a general idea, even though this is at the cost of accuracy. I didn't simplify it (I don't even understand the unsimplified version), all I did was pass on the simplified version that is largely accepted.

Absolutely and I agree entirely. Clock speed does NOT mean everything. And I have no issues with that. It's when you comment that 'because AMD has 9 of this and Intel only has 6 and this means AMD is better' -- thats what I challenge.
Losing precision is one thing and that is generally acceptable. Losing accuracy ... that tends to result in incorrect information being conveyed to the end user. Now as to what to buy, AMD or Intel ... that was already mentioned in a somewhat simplified and fair manner in the
CPU 101.
