I guess all AVR freak suggested that AVR is "better" whatever that means :-)

Anyway, all I am saying is that "MIPS" does not mean too much so that
should be out of all comparison. There are many other aspects that are
usually not addressed in discussions like this. For example -- as I
tried to express already -- probably a 16bit architecture is a better
value for the very same amount of money than an 8bit one -- except if
there is a very good reason for that 8bit chip (like a special module
or that DMA with external SRAM accessibility).
