Just some comments here:

1. From what I've seen, Pentium II sales haven't been all that great.
I figure it'll pick up but right now it seems like people aren't
willing to pay the premium for the better performance, they
rather settle for Pentium 200's.

2. K-6 sales also look a little low from what I've seen.

3. My Cyrix 200+ is up a running (except for a pesky mouse problem).
I haven't done any benchmarks on it yet to compare it to my
Intel systems at work yet but I played around with Office 97 and
Street Atlas 4 (rendering complex maps) and those two performed
a little better than I expected. Right now I'm looking for the
right applications to use to compare the two systems. Photoshop
is commonly used but I think it's performance will rely too much
on how much RAM is in the system, rather than the CPU.
