Hi,

I know this is by far off topic, but if some one could help me with this I would be very grateful.

I am running Oracle 9i on my home machine (Celeron 300 MHz) and it is pretty slow. I would like to upgrade either to Celeron 1.2 GHz or AMD XP 1400+ GHz. Apart from the (not negligible) cost differences I can not decide which solution would be better in respect to the Oracle 9i performance. Every one here at my company would like to persuade me to buy AMD, because it is "MUCH faster" than an Intel Celeron solution. Does this hold?

TIA, Tamas Szecsy
