I own the POS too.

I agree that Intel needs AMD to survive... Without AMD as a "commodity" provider of chips, then Intel's "Name Brand" of chips is worth less...

The truth is, they both are more-or-less commodities and Intel has been able in many minds to create the impression that theirs is better, and thus worth paying a little extra.

Don't worry about me influencing the markets! I just like to hedge my bets! Which sometimes do feel like "Donations".
