I posted benchmarks for a K6-2 @500 and a Pentium II @ 500 and yes, they are very close. Seems like "Syph"-Davis readjusts the Winstone Benchmark every year to favor Intel chips. Or maybe they actually think everyone is using the multitasking mumbo jumbo you alluded to.
It's also clear that Anand is in love with Celerons and BX boards because he can overclock them...yet he get's an K6-2 engineering sample that won't clock to 500 when other reports say the new core overclocks easily to 500. Maybe someone should send him a production chip.
