Re: good bang for buck machines?



I have a AMD K6-2 running at 450mHz, and it seems to be a bit
zippier than the 500 mHz P-III running on my Vaio.  But I also spent
a bit more money on a faster backplane and a faster disk.

I don't know how much that tells you, since the two machines have
pretty different architectures.
