I'm looking do get another PC for my FreeBSD dektop workstation (ie not serving).


For $189 I can get an AMD K2-450 and Motherboard.
For $379 I can get an Intel 400 and Motherboard.


I've heard the AMD has a weak FPU but as soon as you hit PIII the price jumps
way too high (since I won't use the PIII extensions).  Any advice?  Is the AMD
still a good cpu?

Regards,
Mark
