Hey all, I'm trying to find some useful reviews comparing CPUs (hopefully a broad selection, not just the 3 latest out of any given factory) for the average Linux office-progam desktop user. Reviews that take the 2 very latest Intel and AMD DualCores and compre them to each other are pretty much worthless for most people - it's like comparing apples from different sides of the same tree (or off the same branch). I don't care how fast a CPU runs 3D programs, Games and Video/Audio encoding. What runs KDE the fastest when you have all the standard office applications running (FireFox, OpenOffice, Kontact) and SpamAssassin starts sucking the life out of your box when Kontact checks for new mail? Yes, there are plenty of reviews out there, but most of them do not tell me if the latest Dual-Core 64-bit Whoppie runs Kcalc, emacs or apache faster than my ailing P4 3.2 Ghz. Most of them focus on gaming, 3D, floating point intensive Windows applications. I'm not interested in that. Does anyone have any links or personal experience they'd like to share?
