Athlon is a gift from heaven.

It's 15.5% faster than a PIII for DIEP,
and i can only pray that a dual and quad motherboard for it
gets out real soon and competes with intel in such a way that
quad motherboards get cheaper, yes even octo motherboards...

Note that celeron is also quicker than PIII, about 7.2% for DIEP,
but parallel of course it doesn't get near that, it's about
as fast as a PIII for the parallel version of DIEP, so when
talking about parallellism, please let the dual boards already come
from AMD... ...especially now that a 1 Ghz AMD is available (kryoteched
cooled and overclocked SuperG stable at 1 Ghz, see www.kryotech.com)
