my advice is to trust no online review (and most offline ones for that matter).

Hahaha... ok, so we are back to square one then.

Where ARE we supposed to base our opinions if we don't have access to a very large pool of machines or to high tech testing equipment?

I'm going to go back to my first opinion (which is based on my experience)...

AMD=Heat & Heat=lots of fans. Lots of fans=lots of noise. Lots of noise drives users crazy.

Intel=the Honda of processors - it'll always run

I want to know how AMD chips can stay cool enough to be used in laptops. Surely they would melt! (If it's a special cooler range, why can't you get these for desktop?)

That's a great question Hester... Anyone have any answers?
