Scumbria, here's another Xeon vs. Pentium II benchmark from Maximum PC Magazine. The Gateway GX-450XL 450 MHz Xeon at $3,999 was reviewed in the December issue. The Dell Dimension XPS R450 ($2,917), in the November issue.

Benchmark: _____Dell P2-450__________Gateway XEON 450
Synthetic CPU______209 ______________________223 (+7%)
Windows APPS_____185_______________________193 (+4%)
