Campy triple cranks: Veloce vs. Centaur?

A quick question: Other than aesthetics, are there any significant
differences, in performance or durability, between Campy Veloce and
Centaur triple cranks? Or more narrowly: Are there any functional
differences between the stamped alu chainrings that come stock with Veloce
cranks and the machined ones that come with Centaur?

Thanks,

Trent

believe it or not, stamped components /can/ have better mechanical
properties than machined, but accuracy is generally not as good.

you're not going to go far wrong either way. if you want to save a few
bucks, get the veloce crank but the centaur b/b.

I looked into this when choosing my triple chainset, and besides finish, I
haven't found any evidence or opinions that there is any difference at all
between Mirage, Veloce and Centaur crank arms.

Centaur rings are said to last longer but Veloce rings work and last very
well in my experience. Certainly do /look/ a bit cheap though.
