Everyone compromised speed for security without realizing it if they went for an out of order processor.

Intel did it much worse than AMD, and about the same as IBM in terms of vulnerability and performance impact of mitigation.

Core 2 was pretty decent, that's fair. But by the time the i7 came around AMD was kicking their ass at everything but single thread. Even though I am a gamer that's never been the only thing I cared about, and I've also always been cheap, so to have AMD provide dramatically more ops per buck and have very competitive processors which were outright faster in many situations has had me an AMD customer solidly since Athlon. AMD never was able to keep up with Intel's process technology, but by the time that ceased to be a thing, all Intel had left was inertia and skullduggery.

My last non-netbook Intel-based system that I bought with my own money (I had an Elitebook with a Core 2 Duo for a moment) was a P2 400 because AMD has kicked Intel right in the goodies in the market segments I care about since right around then. Only Hammer has even been slightly disappointing since Athlon, and it was still an absolute value for money champ.

[...] giving our existing users another surface for agent collaboration that simply doesn't exist anywhere else. Email isn't just another app; it's where professionals spend significant portions of their day, and it's the perfect staging ground for orchestrating multiple AI agents simultaneously

Did you understand anything in that marketdroid BS? I didn't.

All this screams to me is: avoid - avoid - avoid.
