The AMD is cheaper, and superior, both technically and performance-wise.
The only sector where Intel has the lead currently is mobile CPU's, where AMD just lags.

3 weeks ago i replaced my old intel pc (P4-1.4Ghz) with an amd64x2 3800+ , 2GB ram, i assembled them in an asus mobo A8N-SLI Premium, amazing performance! In Europe costs ~300Euros, dunno anything about US market.
One vote from me to AMD!
:)

Well, its cheaper ( somewhat), it has comparable performance (better for some apps, worse for somee others), and it runs smoothly, while ALL dualcore Pentium D's get extremely hot after a while (no suprise: pentium D is effectively two Prescotts "glued" together, and Prescott was (in)famous for getting damn hot while running- ironicaly enough, just like old AMD athlons...) :D
