Hi ted,
thanks, I thought it might interest people ...

Back to my confusion,

, am currently checking out networking on three machines across four operating systems...

so far have confirmed Windows seven to Vista x86 and XP home and Vista/XP to Linux - will have to leave the Windows 7 to Linux as they're both on the same machine at the moment.

Now if I could just work out which OS I'm on now

think I need a break

Lucky there aren't too many more operating systems for you to try

I really think AMD is too far behind to catch Intel. I used to be loyal to the AMD brand but since Core2, I haven't even considered AMD for lower performance, budget systems for friends.

Given that an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.6mhz costs A$328 and an AMD Dual Core 2.6mhz is A$113 and you can build a low cost AMD system for about A$450, why pay an extra $200 odd if they aren't going to see any benefit because of the way they use their comps. That's where AMD is the winner.

I really hope AMD can get these CPU's or any out soon that will be equal or faster than Intel.

I always rather support AMD than Intel any day, but that is getting harder and harder.
