Hi,

I am considering buying the Athlon XP 1700. I plan to use this in a
Linux system. AMD has said (on its website) that the XP processor is
tailored for Windows XP.


Doesn't mean a thing. Both Linux and Windows will run on the x86 platform.

What does that mean?. Does it mean that I am
better of buying ThunderBird (cheaper too) or a Duron?.


The AthlonXP 1700+ will work in any Socket A motherboard. Buy the retail
version with the heatsink and fan.
