Do as subserpent suggests. Check out how much a newfangled intel "conroe" / Core Duo setup will cost you. It is superior to AMD's offerings in almost every way at the moment. Unless it is hideously more expensive than an AMD setup, why go for 2nd best?

Note: I run an AMD X2 setup myself, and have been AMD user since 2001. But I'd swich with the bat on an eyelid. I stayed away from intel because the P4 was crap and they got cocky with their silly rambus shenanigans. The new "P5" seems to be really good, however.
