Petz, did you see this about k6-2 shipments:

Near-quarter revenue additions from K6. Several weeks ago, AMD announced
it would ship greater numbers of K6 microprocessors than earlier
anticipated. Given that outlook, we are now raising our K6 forecast for
Q1 from 4.2 million to 5.2 million units and 2000 from 10 million to 11.5
million units. This boosts our revenue forecast from $936 million (down
3% sequentially) to $1,007 million (up 4%), which is in line with new
management guidance of "modestly up" revenues. Revenues for the year are
up from $4.1 billion to $4.4 billion.


I recently ordered a k6-2 500 from a long-time authorized AMD retailer. After over a week and a half, I finally got my processor, except that it was the box version (I ordered the OEM). I sent an e-mail to inquire and the response I got was that OEM K6-2 500s are back-ordered and the distributor is also completely out of stock.
