Jim,

PC Magazine has a review up of the Xi 1.1 Ghz box:

So what’s our short take? If you want the most bang for your buck -- and ripping 3-D performance to boot -- the Athlon-equipped MTower is the way to go.

We didn’t have a difficult time seeing why the AMD Athlon processors --
particularly the new Thunderbird chips -- are giving Intel fits and starts. The Xi
1100K MTower SP is fast, loaded, and a lot cheaper than comparably equipped
Pentium III PCs. And that’s a winner in our book.


This is exactly the kind of press we need from PC Magazine.
