And then a cheap CPU ends up being a more expensive CPU.  Thats the 
biggest problem I have with recommending AMDs at the moment.  The CPU is 
generally cheaper to buy than a P4, but then you have to take into 
account adding decent cooling on top of that.

AMD should ship all of their CPUs with heatsinks and fans that are good 
enough to cool the CPUs.  Intel do with their P4s.
