You can get bad atlon-based machines as you can get bad intel-based
machines. Looking at the hardware athlon tbirds and pIIIs are nearly
equivalent, advantages for athlons. I'd go with them. Spend the savewd money
for quality RAM.
I'm running OpenBSD- (and a few linux-) servers on Athlons from 550MHz up to
1.1 GHz without any problems.
