Which CPUs do you love or hate

[tone007]

Hate: anything from Transmeta (complete slugs)
Hate: AMDs (especially in laptops, I'll fry my eggs on the stove, thanks)
Hate: Desktop-class P4 chips in laptops (same reason as above)
Like: Pentium M/Centrino (not horrible performance, alot less overheating)
Love: Intel Dual-core and up of the last few years
Currently enamored with: Intel Atom (quick enough, hardly gets warm)

As far as Amigas go, 68060s are nice.

Other old favorites: 6502 (ubiquitous,), i8080 (IMSAI anyone?)

What most tend to forget is the fact that a single core would always be faster than a dual core running half its speed (or quad respectively) - 1x 6 GHz > 2x 3 GHz.
There is no 6 GHz? Yes, that's the point.

I know I personally tend to forget situations that don't exist.
