Actually a lot of people still use AMD XP systems. I had nothing but Intel systems for years (basically Dells), but at some point AMD took the performance lead and so the first system I ever built is the one I still use today. Now I realize that Apoptosis is right and the lead has switched back to Intel. The system I am building now will once again star an Intel CPU. You gotta love the competition though...keeps 'em all honest and hard working for our business.Frosty_47 wrote:EH nice Review. U ARE absolutely right when u said "some people still use AMD XP systems".
