wbmw, good question. If Intel chips/systems were faster I would definitely go with them. Believe it or not I used to own a 600Mhz P3. If performance was equal but AMD system cost 30% less it would be a toss up. If the prices and the performance were the same I would definitely pick Intel. As s footnote I would like to say that if a Tier 1 like Compaq or HP offered Athlon Business systems my CIO would have bought some and our Corporate CIO could have too.

>If the opposite were true, what would be your feelings on getting Athlon boxes. Similarly, if Intel and AMD performed exactly the same, what would be your feelings then.

I don't know about him (I haven't caught up on the board yet since returning home from NYC), but I'd buy whichever were cheaper (duh :) ).

P.S.: Spent an hour or two on Saturday night in Strawberry Fields singing along to Beatles covers with the crowd there. Touching, indeed.
