Chuckles - Re: "This cracks me up! By the time Joshua presents any real danger to K6s the K6 is likely to be obsoleted. Assuming Spitfire ships in volumes in Q2 and stays a speed grade or two ahead of Celeron, VIA could hurt Intel a lot more than it could hurt AMD."

Relax !

Joshua is a 0.18 micron 2.2 Volt Part !!!! !!!

Most Celerons run at 2.0 volts - so Joshua will require Motherboards that can either already HANDLE the higher Vcc - or they will have to spec out higher Vcc boards - limiting any market penetration.
