Athlon vs Pent.III

[mad1]

Does anyone have information regarding the comparison of the Athlon 550MHZ processor with the Pentium III 550 MHZ processor?
Which one is better?

Most comparisons that I have heard about here give a large edge to the Athlon. It is similar to the P3 600 I believe. I will try and find a comparison and get back to you.
