Dell is now offering to Canadians the option of having AMD processors in it's new E521 series desktops.You can purchase a system with a AMD Sempron 3400+ all the way up to the AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+.
Even though theses are very powerful processors Intel still has the one-up on AMD with the Core2 processors on the market today.
This is a good move for Dell, allowing users to have true options between their computer line-ups. I am now ready to buy a Dell because I still prefer the AMD processor over the Intel.
Dell is pushing the AMD market basically only for the home user and has not released any business desktops as of yet. There are also no notebooks with the AMD processor in it either, which isn't really a bad thing since they aren't nearly as efficient as the Intel Pentium M.
