Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit X-MIME-Autoconverted: from QUOTED-PRINTABLE to 8bit by hub.freebsd.org id EAA09889 Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk Hello! I've got plans to buy a new processor. I´ve done some research, and found that I should get either an AMD K6 or a Cyrix 6x86. Now I have to choose. That's the problem. Both of them are quite cheap and seems to be quite fast. So, anybody, which one should I go for? Any recomendations? I think I'm going to use an Asus motherboard, and most of the time run FreeBSD-2.2.1 or 2.2.2. (Sometimes I'll be running W*ndows 95, but just because I have to.)
