Cirruslvr,

Re:"k6-2+ / K6-3+"

Well my expectations/rumors are that 0.18 speeds will be pretty poor. My guess is 533-550 will be high end at launch with a 600 once volumes ramp and they can cull 10% - perhaps Feb/march.

Not stellar but should be competitive with Celeron and Via once cache is on chip and should be very competitve for laptops.

Remember VIA will be sub 500Mhz (PR rated).

The key though is that overall costs will decrease as no external cache required and smaller die size.

It should allow them to sell 3-5M units/qtr at a $60-70 ASP - which should be very profitable.

regards,

kash
