AMD's dual-core desktop processor, the Athlon 64 X2, finally went on sale as packaged product for end-users yesterday, though supply may be tight.

A number of Tokyo computer shops were offering X2 chips rated at 4200+, 4600+ and 4800+ this weekend, according to local reports. The 4400+ does not seem to have been readily available.

I personally prefer AMD. All my PC's have AMD, but my mother and Grandmother both have Pentiums....They PC's are not only slower than mine, but they hang after each command.
