according to a review i saw on anandtech, the athlons were a tad faster,
except when serving databases, which the pentium excelled at.  i would
reccomend athlons over pentiums any day of the week.  when building
omputers, my clients get AMD over intel, unless they request intel. 
AMD's cheaper too.

check out the review if you can find it, cuz i don't remember where it
was on anand's page.  i think the review was of :
        2 athlon 1.4ghz
        2 p-4 2.1ghz
        some various durons and p-3's.
