Argument points for comparison between AMD and Intel processor?

I am working on an assignment, what are some good argument points for a comparison/contrast between an AMD and Intel processor? I have already mentioned about clock speed, cache, core structuring (Intel use 2 existing core duos, and AMD use 4 individual cores). I do need this urgently, the assignment is due in tomorrow. Thank you. :)

1. sounds like a stupid assignment, like arguing between ford and chevy they both get ya there
2. very simple... its the same as comparing a yugo to a ferrari
3. You can mention the use of hyperthreading in Intels modern i7 processors, resulting in 8 logical cores (8 threads) with 4 physical cores vs AMD who, well, doesn't.
4. How about talking about Power Consumption by comparing the two processors on that, you could possibly talk about the emerging technology of Spintronics and how both may use that technology to reduce power consumption. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spintronics You can also talk about heat output. Heat is a waste product of the processor.
