My first chip was an AMD PR75, after that I've had a cyrix and an even mix of amds and intels. I am currently on a Athlon t'bird 1400.

The reason I prefer intels, is stability. I'm sure things have changed...but the bad history that I've had with AMDs is horrid! Intels run smoother, cooler and damn right easier to build (plus the stickers are smarter! )
