The two things standing in the way of MUCH greater PII sales are price and lack of a clear benefit. The latter is due to a combination of applications not requiring greater performance and bus limitiation. Price will start to fall rapidly, and the introduction of the BX chipset will greatly help the performance perception.

I do have one question, however, does anyone know for sure if the 440BX motherboard chipset and a 100 MHz system bus will work with CURRENT PII's (233, 266, 300 MHz), or will it require a new, more expensive series of processors ?
