<BUTTERING-UP>
I first apologize for the off-topic-ness of this question, the repetivenes,
etc., etc., but I ask here anyway 'cause you're all such a swell group of
people. :)
</BUTTERING-UP>
BogoMIPS aside ('cause we all know what they're worth), which machine
would be "faster" under Linux--a Dual PPro-200MHz or an AMD K6-2 400?
Assume same video, same disk subsystem, same amount of memory (64M or
128M, you pick), and a "standard" set of tasks--no extreme number
crunching, an occasional "large" compilation (the kernel, say), net-
surfing, mail reading, man xterms for development, etc., etc. Any
takers?
If this is just too poor a question for this list, just email me
privately.
