scum bria - Re: "I'm sure that Whitney is a fine chipset, but I'll bet it doesn't have L3 support." It won't. It is targeted at the sub $1000 PC segment and with on-chip L2 cache for its Celerons, it is aiming for low parts count on the motherboard. With a 466 MHz Celeron and a Whitney chip set, the K63's are in deep trouble - since they REQUIRE L3 cache for reasonable performance. K63 systems will then be the HIGH COST alternative. Expect Kmart 63's to begin tumbling in price by the end of this month. Paul
