Intel workers are even more happy than they were when they had gotten their pay. They found out that their paycheck had about four times the amount that was on it.  Intel's Q4 earnings were a lot more then they were expected. Intel's newly developed processor base codenamed "Sandy Bridge", had a much higher performance at a lower cost than Intel's Core i7 Extreme editions that were about $1000. AMD, said that when Intel has speed and power their price goes up and that is very true. AMD's gaming processor lines called the Phenom, are about to release their third generation to combat the Sandy Bridge processors.
