<font color=red>PC Magazine Feb 26, 2002 Page 60 "Chips off the old Block"

From the conclusion of a 3 page article.

....In Fact, counting the patches listed in Microsoft's own Knowledge Base, you find far more for solving problems occurring with Intel-based CPU's than with competitors' products. And let's not forget the well-publicized Pentium math bug of a few years back. A chip isn't necessarily perfect just because it comes from Intel.
So getting back to your new computer: Should you worry about that "Intel Inside" sticker? In a word, no. Instead, worry about having enough RAM, extra hard drive space, a fast video card, and strong customer support. The compatibility of the processor is on the few constants in the PC universe.
