I thought it was kind of funny. Not sure of the accuracy, but I'd get and Intel dual core over a tri-core AMD any day.

What do you think about the ad?

 

[Seizure Explosion]

I wish they'd put this in magazines and billboards but they won't because too many people wouldn't get the joke.

That said, I lol'd.

I saw this the other day on Newegg also. Cracked me up.

Don't buy Intel CPUs, they have a big problem with Math calculation, 2 < 3, not 2 > 3.

I saw this at both ZZF and NewEgg and got a good laugh out of it. Not sure about the dubious math , but it is a sweet looking bike. I agree with one of the other posters though - I don't think you'll see it much outside the usual places enthusiasts go to shop for parts. Most average users are not going to understand the ad.

So what would a quad be, I wonder? A hemi truck? An ATV?

 

[Menelmarar]

Shouldn't the little tricycle be green? LOL

Rounding error, obviously.

Sure, it is the Quad Core bike Intel told OCC to make.

Google it

I remember watching them build it on TV. It has some 4 cylinder engine too

If AMD's marketing folks had any imagination whatsoever, they could have a field day with this baby .

Ok, this is getting out of hand. You knew they had to respond to that.

 

[silentcoercion]

What game is that?

Amusing, though!

I wonder what campaign AMD will use to counter Nehalem? David vs Goliath?

AMD could go with an "our cats are cheap and mostly disease free" campaign.

Remember, Bob Barker says spay and neuter your cores.
