Well, AMD prices have fallen quite a bit since I last checked, but even at current prices, I'd rather have a 1.8A than a 2100 XP for the same price. The 1.8A will routinely get up to the 2.6 range, some much higher. If you've got RDRAM that can handle that kind of FSB, you'll be smokin'.
Maybe w/ the price cuts, AMD is an OK option. I just can't help you out there. ...it all depends on your budget.
