AMDs can afford now to be almost an indulgence, also the first time
I've kept two computers running simultaneously, both a same-rated AMD
and Intel, similarly placed and manufactured same branded Gigabyte
MBs, both having been run round the clock and never turned off
approaching a decade. Icing for the pound cake, as it were.


Yes, for the number of hours we run these things, the cost of the
hardware is not that significant (overall, I pay alot more to my ISP!).
So I splurge a little. I rather have a fast computer than a fast car
anyway! ; )
