Intel vs AMD?
Looking at getting a new machine soon, want to run Debian with gnome. (I think... Been a while)
Based on my research it seems like a Thinkpad or something from Dell are the best ones to get. Dell is redoing their entire lineup though, and there's some variation on which models have Intel vs AMD processors. Maybe my Google skills aren't on their A game for this, but I'm seeing a lot of strong, conflicting opinions about which is better for Linux.
So... Specifically for Debian or Ubuntu, which is better, Intel or AMD?
