Ten - Re: "could you do an apples-to-apples comparison and tell us both the maximum and the typical power ratings for the AMD mobile K6-2P and the Intel mobile Pentium II, both at 400 MHz?"

I just got the K6-2P Mobile Power Dissipation specs.

AMD lists 16 watts as the MAXIMUM power dissipation - for 400, 380, 350 and 333 MHz !

Go figure !

Anyhow, AMD clearly made some process mods and/or major design mods to reduce the power from 22 watts down to 16 watts for the mobile version.

This is still 5.2 watts HIGHER than the DIXON QS - which, as noted by Elmer, includes 256 KiloBytes of L2 cache on the DIXON QS chip, whereas the AMD Mobile K6-2 has no L2 cache - so system L2 cache power dissipation must be ADDED to the 16 watts for the K6-2.
