There are a few 1.4Ghz 7455 based Sonnet CPU upgrades floating around that might be useful on older Powermacs (and these usually sell for less than 1.6-2.0 Ghz upgrades).
If you can get a third party CPU upgrade (poss. via Ebay) at a good price, then I can see their utility on Quicksilver and older Powermacs.
Other than that, you might be right Dave. There isn't that much advantage over a 1.42 Ghz MDD processor.
I guess it really depends on how cheaply you can find the 1.25GHz & 1.42GHz G4 PowerMacs, compared to the cost of buying an older, slower G4 PowerMac & 1.4GHz G4 CPU upgrade. I have been fortunate to have found MDD G4's at very low prices.
