   The reason there are so many AMD supercomputers is because they are much cheaper than Intel's

    I'm not sure about 'cheap' but maybe more cost effective (more bang for the 'buck')?

    I really would like to see AMD succeed in this market. This will give consumer a choice and will benefit both parties (AMD & Intel) to improve thier products for years to come.
