I've seen an Intel i3 beat an AMD 8350 in certain games. Not may but enough to to a double take. The point being the i3 should not be beating AMD's top of the line cpu in anything for goodness sake. Don't get me started on the difference in power usage...blah.
Don't care what new OS these XP people upgrade too, they just to need to move on if the machine is Internet facing. I have no idea what they're doing about all the ATM's?
