Scot - RE: "Today I actually bought a 500 mhz k6-2 for my SS7 box. I was waiting for the k6-2+....." Since a 550MHz K6-2 and not K6-2+ came out yesterday I thought I would get a K6-III 450 because it would probably be faster than a K6-2 at any MHz but Pricewatch is basically out of them, except one vendor selling them at an unrealistic price of $186. AMD has shafted us people expecting an opportunity to upgrade the performance of our processors running on a SS7 motherboard. Higher MHz K6-2s are still stuck to the slow L2 cache. Fortunately, MHz sells [TM McMannis] in retail - so us getting the shaft isn't completely bad because AMD gets more sales even though performance doesn't improve much...
