AMD for me... A Thunderbird 900 MHz in this box (ouranos).

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? :)

      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 :)
