I guess that if one can take care of the cooling requiremnets (even w/o airconditioning, see that the case is good and install a few fans), the Athlon is great. I have been thinking of buying one for the past some weeks, but just when I decided to go ahaead, AMD released the Thunderbird and Duron. Check out sites like http://www.aceshardware.com, http://www.tomshardware.com and others to get a feel of how well the Athlon Classic, Athlon T-Bird & Duron stand upto the P-III and Celeron. No reason to go for Intel, I feel, though a K6-2 *may* not be a good choice, IMHO. sachin ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For information on this and other Linux India mailing lists check out http://lists.linux-india.org/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The LIH mailing list archives are available at: http://lists.linux-india.org/cgi-bin/wilma/linux-india-help
