Intel P4 or AMD

If you are a gamer: Pentium IV all the way.
If you are all other things on top of that: AMD is cheaper/faster/equally reliable, provided that you will stay away from VIA based mainboards.
Actually it was the VIA kt133 that was the one to stay away from the KT266 Chipset was voted to be the fastest and most reliable chipset for AMD I own one and have never had a single crash and i duel boot both XP and ME, I think it all boils down to having your PC properly configured.

As for the topic I wouldnt touch Intel, well not while AMD offer a CPU that it cheaper and stomps all over the P4 hands down and I been using AMD for years and never had these compatibility issue some people are talking about.

lol and in reply to the post above, maybe your students are cheap asses and should invest in some decent cooling.
