Thanks for this :). We at AMD (especially on the GPU side) have a intense amount of respect for the engineers over at Intel. What Intel has done with their recent CPU architecture, along with the constant advances in fabrication technology, they deserve a lot of credit for "keeping the ball moving forward" in our industry.
To support jecb's argument, you often hear of negative press going on between the two companies, but that kind of animosity is largely isolated to the legal, marketing, and upper management levels. The engineers at most companies tend to have many good friends working for competitors, and while we might throw in a friendly jab every now and then, it's almost a universally friendly community.
Thanks for this AMA. It's always cool to hear what it's like on the blue team :).
