Spurious,
Re -- I guess if that's the case than the Celeron with 128k of on chip L2 cache (Mendocino core), due out September 13 (four months after K6-2), will also be faster than a regular Pentium II-300 with 512k of backside cache.

On many multi media applications the Celeron (Mendocino) will be faster, or equivalent to the pentium II.

The PentiumII is for Performance PC's with added PCI slots, 100 Mhz bus, for business (where the K6 is completely absent). The Celeron is for the Basic PC for Web browsing and games (A cheaper better alternative to the K6-2).
