Would you purchase a Shuttle?

I'm considering purchasing a shuttle barebones for my son (SK43G) and I'm not sure which CPU to get. AMD Athlon or a Sempron (2500+). Not really sure what the big difference is anyway.
Anyone have any stories to tell about the Shuttle? Good or bad.
 
get an athlon processor. should be faster than any comparative sempron. ex. xp2500+ > sempron 2500+.
 
This really belongs in the SFF section, and you could try Sudhian forums. Anyways, IIRC the Athlon XP is clocked faster than the Sempron at any given rating (eg AXP 2500+ vs Sempron 2500+). AMD simply revised the ratings, effectively lowing the clock speed across the original AXPs. Other than that they should be the same core, unless you're getting a very old Athlon XP.

Shuttle has poor after-sales support for techinical issues. You're best source of help is likely to be from the public forum linked above. However, if you need to RMA they will do it, though in terms of service YMMV. I'm not sure if there are any glaring problems with the SK43G; I suspect it should be almost bug-free. You should check at Sudhian forums though
