For those who can't understand why AMD has a 366 MHz K6-2...
All you have to do is go to a retail store and see how the average consumer buys a computer. They walk in and look at the MEGAHERTZ and the PRICE. Then to make them feel better the real uninformed like to stick to a major name brand....ahhh like HP.
They don't know that the 366 is running on a cheap integrated motherboard with a 66 (cheap ram) megahertz bus....they know cpu MEGAHERTZ and the price will be right. HP will sell a ton of these just like the 300 and 333...probably be the best seller in November.
