This from the Real World Technologies:

It appears that Cyrix is holding on to their stock of M II PR300 processors for some reason. From what we hear, they renamed the 225MHz parts from 6x86MX PR266 to M II PR300, since they should compare favorably with the Celeron 300MHz part.

As predicted, Tom's Hardware has given the Celeron processor the "Thumb's Up" for gaming platforms at a very low price. Intel may have sprung a big surprise on the other manufacturers with this one. The official availability date for these processors is May 1, so apparently Cyrix decided to delay the release of their new processor until May 15 to get a good glimpse of where they will fit in the scheme of things. This may be a move to delay pricing until they know exactly how they stack up against the Celeron 266MHz processor. AMD will be officially releasing the K6-300 on 4/21 in boxed units only. The K6-266 remains unavailable, and a nasty rumor says that it has been discontinued!! We are trying to get confirmation on that. That would be an awfully strange move for AMD, since the price point of the 266MHz part is absolutely perfect.
