Because, at the time, that was the best available from both AMD and Intel.
Also, if I'm not mistaken, the prices were similar at the time. Notice
that I was careful to also do some core vs. core benchmarks so that you
could possibly compare dual-core Xeons and look forward to Barcelona.

Conway,
While it doesn't include Barcelona, you probably would find my review on
LinuxHardware.org very useful in your decision making process. It
included the latest Xeon and Opteron processors using Tyan boards. Here's
the link:

If you have any other questions, I'll be happy to help.

Why do you compare two systems with a different number of cores? 2x2Core
athlon64 versus 2x4Core Core2Duo.
