  My condolences again.

  Not a big suprise. You really should have spent your money on an Athlon
(it would even have been cheaper). With a 1.2-1.4GHz Athlon the speed margin
would probably have been about 100-200% instead of that 25-30%.

  If you can return your P4 and get your money back, I would recommend you
to do it and buy the Athlon instead.
