I like the Athlon one. Using an Athlon 1800-based PC has actually cut my gas heating bill :-D

I have a Thoroughbred. You mean it could have run hotter?  :-o  ;-) One good thing I have to say about my Athlon machine is I haven't had a single BSOD since I bought it about 5 months ago :-) (Running Win2k. Now if only Bill would opensource that... he he... oh well.)
