All-
It will be interesting to see how the L2 Cacheless PII benchmarks. If the performance is similar to that of PMMX's or K6, then the only reason I can imagine for it is to try to obsolete socket 7 as fast as possible; the the cost of PMMX is presumably lower. If this turns out to be the case, then Intel may be locking themselves into a cost structure that is higher than that of AMD, assuming AMD ever gets its yields up.

Does anyone know of any such benchmarks?
