AMD are more economical, but some stuff will not work with them. I had a PCI wireless card that refused to work on three different Athlon/Duron based machines, but worked flawlessly on the first P4 I tried it in. Intel is sometimes behind on performance, but these days speed is beyond what you used to have to worry about. Neither one will be a bottleneck. Support will be better from Intel. They are in bed with Microsoft, after all.

To be honest, both will do the same task, we have clients running servers on both AMD and Intel, provided they run on stable hardware, you shouldnt find much difference in performance for 75 users, benchmark will show this one is faster by 5% and that one will be 7% slower etc.
In real life, not many can sit there and say 'hey, our server is really slow' as the major factor of a network are normally disk access time and network bandwidth.
