Can you give us an idea of how much butt it kicks? BogoMIPS, or a better benchmark?
Linux bogomips reporting is bogus (my p200mmx shows higher bogomips than my friend's dual p2-300) and is well documented as being a worthless number. A good floating point benchmark is Quake timedemo and a good integer benchmark is rc5 benchmark. There are plenty of benchmarks out there, but Quake and rc5 run on a lot of boxes so there are a wealth of results on the web to guage your pc's performance against in those two benchmarks.

I've got 2 Linux systems participating in the RC5-64 cracking effort. One box is a K6-300 and there other is a PPro 200. While Linux shows that the K6's Bogomips are more than twice what the PPro's are, the PPro 200 cracks more keys per seconds than the K6-300 does. I really like how well the PPro runs Linux. :) Tony -- Tony Schlemmer | Phone : 425-372-2246 Software Developer | Fax : 425-372-2222 Global Mobility Systems, Inc. | Mobile: 425-503-8544 11201 SE 8th Street, Suite 110 | <A HREF="mailto:tschlemmer@gmswireless.com">mailto:tschlemmer@gmswireless.com</A> Bellevue, WA 98004 | <A HREF="http://www.gmswireless.com"><A HREF="http://www.gmswireless.com</A">http://www.gmswireless.com</A</A>> ------------------------------------------------------------------ "More programming projects have gone awry for lack of calendar time than for all other causes combined."
