Dave, re: 266 MHz K6-- Could these chips be directly placed into a notebook, or does AMD need to go through another redesign? The die of the 266 MHz K6 used in the IBM Aptiva's is the same as the die used in the 233 MHz Compaq notebooks, but the packaging and the core voltage is different. (Probably 2.1v for desktop, 1.8 or 1.9 for mobile.) The packaging for the desktop is a standard Socket 7, the packaging for notebook is called a "Ball Grid Array" or BGA. BTW, IBM is probably doing the packaging for the desktop version themselves. Petz
