In all of my experience Intel has performed and lasted the longest. I have always had some sort of quirk with an AMD board/CPU.

I plan on sticking with them too. AMD outclocks Intels in gaming, and that's what I use my machines for.
I ran Jedi Outcast on my 650mhz Athlon. And I bought that in 1999 and didn't have to upgrade till 2003. Intels are overpriced, they need to stop being so cocky.
More times then not I love the underdog. Espically when he is cheaper and offers a great product.

I've had no problems with either. Though I tend to trust Intel a little more. Still, I had an AMD for awhile (still have it actually just not using it) and it worked fine for me.

Let me add a little twist, I think that Intel is probably a better quality chip, slightly faster and longer lasting....but the question I find myself asking is how much better?! $$$
Not enough for me to pay that much more, and because of that I have been buying AMD since the K6-2 and will probably continue to do so, so long as I can get more for my money. I've had no reliability issues and longevity is far more determined by the advancement of technology then it is physical function, so most likely I will be replacing my AMD for a more updated processor long before it bites the bullet.

I'd rather spend more $$ for more stability and quality.

<-----doofus giggles like a little school girl at the thought and anticipation of buying an Intel Processor, hehehehe
Intel will be the only processor I will ever use and it's the only processor that I put in systems when I was builing them and if I ever build systems again on my own Intel will be my first and only choice......
I've never had any stabilty or quality problems with AMD.
Me either. Though many of my intel friends can't seem to stop having issues. With the money I save off the chip I get to spend more on a nicer motherboard and high quality ram.
