Dual headed PC's are not in my experience base but AMD for me has been exceptional for the $. My 1.4 outruns an Intel 1.8 by 5% and I'm running Win98SE. Rumor out there is that WinXP can improve my PC performance by another 25%. I'll believe that when I see it though. I've been running AMD for a really long time and have NEVER had a glitch. There have also been very few moments in the last several years where the cost was not cheaper for AMD as well. I always build my own machines so I can upgrade them faster and easier. I personally know what's in the machine and how to change it easier that way. It's probably a little more expensive that way but worth it for me. -Kix
