I thought Intel's prices went down whenever you mentioned AMD (or now IBM). Do the prices go back up if you actually buy from AMD?

They go down when you are trying to decide, if you decide against Intel[1], and still have to buy Intel stuff, the price on that other stuff goes up.
[1] They were really pushing Itanium as their 64 bit solution to keep it out of the x86 line. But that was never going to work for NetApp.
