In reply to Comment 29 (Bill Hoggett):
In this day and age the motherboard and CPU are like pieces of Lego. Just two elements of the whole package. A good graphics card is more expensive than both of those. Depending on your need for DVD burners etc. The CPU may only be 5% of the entire system value. (Obviously you need matching drivers and applications).

There is also a window of opportunity because of the transition to 64-bit. If an alternate platform is going to take off... Well let's see who is still standing in 2 years.

AMD got plenty of fanatics in the gaming community by beefing up their FPU. Easy if you have popular games on the platform.

Corporations are not very inventive and seem to prefer clones of big selling products over something 'unknown'.

I will be happy if Amiga/Pegasos is nothing more than an internet/video processing box. At least I will some sanctuary from the Windows 3 Ring Bug Circus.
