Thanks Colin and Desmond!  The lower price and lower power consumption
make the AMDs pretty attractive so I think I'll spec up a machine with
one and see what I get...  I can side-step any graphics card problems
because I won't be using a GUI, which is handy :) !!!!  Don't fancy
wrestling with that!
