substantiate please. Check price/performance. If I have to build a assembled machine, AMD machine including mobo+CPU+RAM+Machine case costs around the same(13000/-) as intel mobo+cpu(14500/-). This was about 1.5 years ago. I haven't built a box since. But from my past experience, prices remain pretty steady, what you get is changed. If you put same amount of money in AMD machine, you could possibly afford 8GB of RAM ! -- Shridhar -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: (plug-mail@plug.org.in) List Information: http://plug.org.in/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
