    AMD all the way. When it comes to a basic desktop what other choice is there? Intel you say? their chips are consistantly beaten by lower-priced AMD chips in benchmarks (not to mention Intel does some pretty stupid stuff).

    Update: Oh yeah, as for my home computers I have a 1.2Ghz thunderbird and a 800mhz duron (hoping to get an XP sometime soon :)

    Intel dual 400.

    I know I know ... but for only $800US (including the 21" monitor) it is hard not to take candy from the hand of the devil.

    Besides, my other computer is a Yamaha!!

    For those of you who are into such things, I've always felt that the relationship between Intel and AMD is best described by the relationship between the Intel 8087 and the AMD 9511/9512! Compare the instruction sets sometime (not to mention the date you could actually get your hands on one) and then ask yourself why everyone thinks that Intel invented the (micro anyway) math co-processor?

    Mine is a 1Ghz Intel, but i would like a SunBlade 100 or even better an Imac or with more hope ($) a PowerBook Titanium will be great. :)
    Failure is not an option - it is a privilege reserved for
    those who do not try hard enough.

      I have a SunBlade 100 at work (Solaris) and a 1.4 Ghz Athlon (Linux) at home. Both have .5 GB or RAM or better. The SunBlade is nice, rock-solid hardware, but I would not trade the speed of my Athlon for anything. In fact I spend about half my development time at work SSH'ed into my home box because it runs so much faster. I copy the code over, develop at home and copy it back. Plus that way I can links into PM.org whilst I work. ;)

        Do you literally copy the code? Is your code not in some sort of network-available CVS project? CVS is the only way to go on that sort of situation.

        You'll love it. Trust me.

        <megaphone> Throw down the gun and tiara and come out of the float! </megaphone>

        I use a SunBlade 100 too and I actually think the thing is slower than my AMD K62-350 at home. In fact, I honestly feel that the x86 machines I have worked on (comparable clock speeds) actually handle resource loads better than the Sun boxen do. I upgraded recently from an ultra5 (man I loved that machine) to this sun blade (sunpci 2) and while I still enjoy this beast, I sometimes wish I had an x86 box here running some flavor of BSD. What I hate most is Solaris 8....or Solaris in general. I hate proprietary junk. The one good thing about the Sun boxes is the diags you can do on the machines from the eprom. Did I mention that I am not fond of Solaris? Oh yeah, I did.

        Now of course, when it comes down to hard core servers a machine that can have 32 procs and 20 gig of ram is tough to be beat by an x86 machine so, those types of machines are not what I am talking about; strictly client boxen.

    Backed up by 1152 MB SDRAM, I can watch 2 mpeg movies simultaneously, listen to four mp3's at a time and run vmware with Windows in it (idle, though) and still be able to use an xterm without lag ;)

      Wow, you can listen to four mp3's at once? Have you overclocked your ears? :)

        Wow, you can listen to four mp3's at once? Have you overclocked your ears? :)

        It can actually be quite good to listen at four tracks at the same time. With some practice, you can focus on a single one, or all four simultaneously.

        Besides, after listening to four mp3's, a single mp3 without all the background noise sounds even better :)

    Grump -- there's no option for those of us that believe that two is better than one. My main machine these days is still a dual Celeron 533 on the infamous BP6 motherboard.

    perl -pe '"I lo*`+$^X$\"$]!$/"=~m%(.*)%s;$_=$1;y^`+*^e v^#$&V"+@( NO CARRIER'

      There are several mobos that support dual athlons on the market today. Tyan was the first to offer one I believe, but it was quite expensive (<$400 IIRC) and aimed at the server market. Now with the advent of the 760MPX chipset by AMD more desktop mobos are becoming available.

      Here's a link to the tyan board, and here's a recent roundup of mobos using the 760MPX chipset done by the guys over at firingsquad.com

    My primary PC CPU is... broken, you insensitive jerk!

    I voted based on it anyway: An AMD Athlon 750MHz.

      Mine is the same as theorbtwo's, Athlon 750mhz and broken. However, I voted based on what I was running. That which is working is an AMD K6-2 350 and a hard drive with Linux (M$ == crap).)

    Enlightened Bodhisatvas,

    I used to use a PIII 450Mhz desktop. Served me well. Recently, in an effort to study away from the house and kids, I purchased a laptop with an AMD Athlon 1.2Ghz. The difference in speed is breath taking. Now, I use the desktop predominantly for gaming because of its 19" screen. For anything else, I prefer the laptop.

    At work it is a different story. I am in the Marine Corps and code on an old PII 400 with a 17" screen. Yes, it is adequate, but I am definitley flying coach!!!

    How does industry treat you real programmers? Do you get sweeter systems?
      Well, I admit, my employer treats us pretty well. I am treated a bit better than some of the others because of the other extra-curricular things I do. Here is what I have on my desk right now:

      1: Sun Blade 100 running @ 450 mHz with 128 Mb (use to be 256 but they took 128 away from me! Whats that all about?!

      2: My Sun Blade 100 has a SunPCI 2 card in it. This is basicly an AMD motherboard running everything except its own hdd. Technically, this is a PC inside my Sun Blade. I am running Win 2K on it. Its a 700 mHz CPU with 196 Mb of RAM.

      3: Intel Pentium III 700 with 256 Mb.

      Peripherals

      *I am running a 7 drive cdrom scsi array off my Sun Blade that automounts and auto shares when a CD is placed in the drive. People use this to install software onto servers that we don't have physical access to. (the main data center is about 20 minutes away from here).

      *I have an 8mm dat and an HP cdrom 9600 series CDRW daisy chained together for backups. Ok, the part that sucks about this is that cdrecord doesn't have drivers bundled for the cdrw. So, it kind of can't write atm. :)

      I know it wasn't asked for but I am curious to know what others have, too. At home, I have computers coming out of my ears!
      1: My main machine is an AMD K6-2 350 with 256 Mb running FreeBSD 4.5.

      2: Next down is a Pentium 233 MMX with 64Mb running Linux

      3: A Pentium Celeron 700 with 128 Mb running FreeBSD.

      4: A Pentium Celeron 700 with 256 Mb running FreeBSD.

      and finally
      5: A Pentium III 600 laptop with 128Mb dual-bootable to Win2k Pro SP1 and FreeBSD 4.4.

      Thats my line up. I prefer the AMD chips. I just happened to get great prices on machines that were Intel only on the main boards so, I was stuck with getting Intel shtuff. I prefer AMD over Intel though...I really do! :)

      Yes and no... I have a great server that I can log into for development, but we're getting shafted as far as workstations go.... My only *real* complaint is that I cannot throw gnome onto a sunray (you can if you have your own box, a la a sunblade 2000), as the sunray has no physical drive,and I cannot control the interface :(

      Not too many complaints though... The job rocks... :)

      Where I used to work, we got top of the line boxes (600 MHz was top of the line at the time) with top of the line video cards (nVidia GeForce was top of the line at the time) and bee-yoo-tee-ful 21" monitors.

      Sweet stuff. It was in part because the VP of Technology recognized the productivity gains from having highly-trained employees working on good equipment and in part because the VP of Technology was alpha dev in late-night Quake sessions ;-)

    Actually a Dual-Athlon MP 1800.

    BTW Linux was ridiculously easy to install. The store did not know how to do it, so I went there on the day Mandrake 8.2 was released and 30 mn later (10 of which spent going through the list of packages choosing what to install) voila! System working perfectly, network configured, firewall up, ready to use. The guy who installs Windows was thouroughly disgusted!

    ...Pentium II 400. But I have two of them. SMP++

    My machine is getting on a bit now, but it still cuts the mustard for most tasks.

    I paid peanuts for the two processors (cheaper than a single 600Mhz at the time) and I think it's a great way of getting some extra poke - rather than springing for the cutting edge processors and their similarly cutting price tag.

    Most of my time at work is spent connected to a 16-way Sun machine - proper hardware :)

    I am 3 parts away from the launch of my new system. I previously had an AMD Athlon 550 Slot A machine. It ran very well. It had a few problems with the Biostar motherboard's AGP slot being bad, but otherwise ran like a champ. The machine I am currently constructing is an AMD Athlon XP 2000+ cooled by the Thermaltake Volcano 7 (soon to be an Innovatek H2O system) with 512MB of PC2100 DDR RAM, Soyo DRAGON+ MoBo, Western Digital Caviar 120GB w/ 8 MB cache, Enermax 465 switching power supply with adjustable rear fan speed, Lian Li PC-68 case, Winfast GeForce 2 32MB video card and a Diamond MX300 Monster Sound card. I'm using the rounded IDE and floppy cables and a non-metallic CPU shim with Arctic Silver 3 compound. This is the nicest machine I have ever built. I hope it doesn't let me down.

    Cyrix '300' running at ~218mhz. With 128mb ram. But I don't mind, it's still seems easily fast enough as a Windows 2000 development box as long as I keep the memory usage below 150mb. Maybe one day I won't be a student.

    1.0 GHZ AMD oc'd 1.1ghz
    .5 gig RAM
    ATI Radeon 8500 (duel monitors baby)

    Duel Boot SuSe/WinXP

    Just wish SuSe supported the duel monitors or I knew how to use em better, it's really nice for programming.

      Duel boot? Duel monitors? I'm imagining something like a shoot-out between different disk images, or the monitors?

    I wish I could afford an Athlon, but that is out of bounds for the moment!

    I use a pentium 75mhz w/ 40 megs of RAM for my web server/ email server / firewall / router. Truly amazing that so much can be run on so little hardware! ( Standard RH 7.2 ) nathan at natejokedotdhsdotorg
