Anyone know about AMD K5Pxxx processors?

[Syrus Nemat-Nasser <syrus@UCSD.EDU>]

Hello.

I'm considering a desktop upgrade for my home, and I'm wondering if any 
of you know how the AMD chips perform under Linux.  Specifically, I'm 
interested in the AMD K5P133 verses a Pentium 100 or 120.  I've read that 
the FPU speed does not measure up, but that the card just rips with 
integer operations.  I'm interested in fast video and fast loading of 
large apps mostly.

Any opinions?

Thanks.  Syrus.
