I can compare a TB 900 with a K6-2 500 for Tiger and Rebel. Tiger is
approximately 2.2 times faster while Rebel is 2.0 times faster.

I wanted to purchase the DDRam motherboard but eventually got tired of waiting.
I prefer to have a large number of motherboard choices and read reviews on them.
With the DDR boards it will take awhile before that occurs.
