FWIW:  I'm running an AMD Athlon2000+XP here (right now),
and my temperature(s)  (is)/are  95*F or 35*C
This is with an ambient internal case temp of 69*F or 21*C.

I keep hearing about AMDs running "hot" but I think the Athlons
have changed all that...  (This is a plain "desktop type" machine.)
(I also have an 2600+XP-266FSB, and that runs cooler than this one...)
