I'd prefer an AMD processor. The only problem is I'm concerned about compatibility with the via chipset with certain hardware. For example my last upgrade was with a K62 300 and a FIC motherboard with VIA chipset. I found that with certain professional sound cards and direct disk recording that the chipset was incompatible. Although the AMD processor and the setup I have now is excellent for everything else, I want to make very sure that I have no compatibility problems with anything that comes out in the audiophile world in the future, and I guess that means sticking with the industry standard Intel and the intel chipset. Trust me, I would love one off the Athlon processors!
