my company installs over a 1000 pc's a year, new units for new employees and replacement pc's for those older systems out there.

Due to previous AMD problems, think 70+w chips that had serious heat issues, and our pc hardware guys just won't buy AMD anymore. So alot of the systems are smeleron 1.7g and higher. Cheap chip and adequate performace for business applications.

So Intel will keep making the smeleron for workstation class business machines. The P4 is for the serious power user in a business environment.

The AMD's are for us gamers an need for speed types.
