Oh yeah, both companies have some good margin on their chips. Although it still costs AMD more to make it's CPUs compared to Intel. Their new fab should help with that though. And it doesn't have as much profit rolling in to put towards marketing etc. :rolling:
Mostly goes toward manufacturing or research&dev.
