Yeah I'm also surprised where's all the e-fighting? Anyway, I like the idea of using the AMD since you can swap out the chip and use the same motherboard most of the time. But the Core i7 series has a 6.4 GT/s (GT=Giga Transfer) vs AMD Phenom X4 9600 at 3600 MT/s
But then again the Core i7 is about $800 and the AMD is $249. =)
