That's exactly the conundrum I'm finding myself in! Micron is advertising a
dual-133 configuration that would come in right around five figures set up as a
dedicated rendering slave (small monitor, plain vanilla video card, SCSI
w/2gigs, 4x cd-rom but forget the audio stuff, and 128 megs o' RAM). That
looks like the best dual system I've seen, not counting custom stuff.
Re the P6: I'd wait 'til spring to get one, if you can wait that long…
Remember the Pentium 60/66? Also, it sounds to me like MAX won't be out 'til
Feb. or Mar. anyway.
Of course this is just my opinion… For myself, I've decided to wait for a
P150 as a stop-gap, then when MAX comes out I'll start to investigate P6 versus
Alpha…
Your thoughts?
