Strangely, guy.fawkes@error404.surfbaud.co.uk (Guy Fawkes) felt the
need to say:


>when you sayb"PIII" do you mean real p3 as in xeon???

I seriously doubt it. A xeon isn't a p3 is it? If it is I imagine it
has a ton of cache & goes at breakneck frequencies. Anyway, it
certainly isn't something most of us mere mortals will be using to run
Quake 3 Arena. 

If I was buying, I'd go for the Athlon.
