Haven't read any of the other replies to this yet, but I insist that you
consider an Athlon. Earlier in the year, the motherboard support for them was
rather shabby, but now there are some really good ones out there. Asus just
came out another K7x model that's getting great reviews. Athlons are MUCH
cheaper than equivalent P3's right now, and if you can wait a few months, I'd
highly recommend the Thunderbird version of the chip (a socket model, not the
current slot ones). Go to pricewatch.com and check out how cheap some of the
lower-mhz ones are. I think you'll be impressed. I own an Athlon 750mhz and no
regrets here.
