Subject: Is it ok to use AMD athlon processors?

Hi People,

As far as port i386 NetBSD is concerned, is the AMD
athlon processor 100% ok to use?

The new box I'm getting here at work is going to be
AMD unless I say I need INTEL because I run NetBSD.
I'm pretty sure AMD is meant to be totally INTEL
compatible, but I'd like to be sure because I want to
keep running NetBSD at work when the new hardware
arrives and I've never had to answer this before.

thanks in advance,
Paul.
