Thanks, Petz! At least where I am living the NW 2.2 is nowhere to be seen, in contrast to the AXP 2000+.

BTW: I just read the AXP 2000+ review at FiringSquad. That's what they say as "Final Verdict":

"The Athlon XP 2000+ certainly surprised us. On paper it gives up over 500MHz to the Pentium 4 and now contains less onboard cache. Even when the Pentium 4 originally debuted Athlon was only 300MHz behind. With the growing clock speed discrepancy and larger cache size available with Northwood we assumed the Athlon XP 2000+ was outmatched. It turns out our initial impressions were clearly wrong. (...)

In any case, the Athlon XP 2000+ continues AMD's tradition of offering great performance at an excellent price. As hard as Intel has tried to crush it, the Athlon line of processors lives on, and in terms of performance, is thriving. As long as AMD's transition to 0.13-micron is a smooth one, we see no signs of this trend changing."
