Yeah i have an intel chip but that doen't mean i don't know whats goin on.
Intel is playing catch-up with AMD because:
The Itanic is floping due to the Opteron that is 32bit backwards comatapble wile teh Itanium is not, and its thousands cheaper.
The Xeon is in trouble becasue the Opteron is 64 bit and it performs better.
And the Presscot is worse than the Northwood untill it gets to 3.6ghz and it can't go that fast untill 775 come out. And teh Athlon 64 3400+ is better than all but the P43.4 EE that cost >1k
Thogu the 775 CPU's might turn the tides back it hard to say. Also Intel is cutting its destop CPU prices quite well to compete
