Sure, at first, an Athlon out-performed an equally clocked PIII in terms of raw speed. The Coppermines significantly closed this speed gap. The Intel chips also scale better to speeds around 750MHz and up, so the PIII-800 actually out-performs the equivalent Athlon system on many benchmarks. Not to mention the other problems with AMD chips (excessive heat, flakiness, etc.).
