Hi David,

   I have had the AMD-233 on my FIC PA-2007 motherboard since last year and
I have had no problems with it.  I would say go with the AMD and have no
reservations about it.  I specifically chose the AMD over the Intel for the
price reason and the excellent reviews on it.  The AMD 266 is now out.  AMD
has made the decision to support the socket 7 user and not leave us hanging
like Intel.  The CPU's that AMD has announced that will be out in the next
couple years is exciting . . . they will add speed (300+) and also 3D
support.

See ya,
LaMont
