Cool! The AMD CPU will finish performing an instructions a whole 5
nanoseconds before the Intel CPU! 

When a code is well-written (usually it mean: written by a good 
compiler) the pipeline delays won't add too much.

In other words: this is a nice argument, but until it is backed up by
hard data, it practically means nothing.
