I want to upgrade my Dual-Celeron machine to a Dual-?? and haven't got a
clue which way to go ... AMD vs Intel ...
AMD is cheaper but I've been 'Intel' since I started with computers
... any drawbacks as far as SMP under FreeBSD? benefits?
if I throw cost away, are the Intel's still the better choice for a Unix
environment? I heard somehwere that AMD was great for gamers ... but what
about "real work"?
