"Earlier this month, Intel held a 'reviewer's workshop' event where they invited a number of representatives from hardware review sites to spend a few days benchmarking and learning about their new Core 2 microarchitecture. The star of the show was Woodcrest, which is the top end of the Core 2 lineup and will be replacing the last Netburst-based Xeon processor in June. The participating reviewers got to benchmark both Dempsey and Woodcrest, and the results of those benchmark runs are now available. In all, Woodcrest looks like a stellar performer that massively improves on its predecessors in both raw horsepower and power efficiency."

IMHO AMD can't compete with the new intel CPU's before 2007.
Personally, i haven't owned an intel cpu after the pentium 3 but i think things are about to change.
The price/performance/watts ratio of the core 2 cpu's will imho win crouds back from AMD.
