The original Athlon was roughly the same speed as a Pentium 3 of the same clock rate, the late models were actually faster. They were simultaneously cheaper. The Athlon XP was comparable in power to the Netburst Pentium 4s. The Athlon X2s, having been designed from the beginning for dual-core operation due to their server heritage, were more efficient at multi-core operation than the Pentium Ds.

AMD has been neck and neck more than once, and ahead at LEAST once.

Nah, it's Zune. They stopped making Zunes a long-ass time ago. Got contacted by a customer with a 5 year old Zune that was broken and she wanted a replacement and it was like..."We haven't made ANY Zunes for years, that model for even longer and your warranty ran out 4 years ago."

"But I never dropped it!"

*sigh*
