Jim, I listened to Anand's Comdex Report video from his website in which he makes a passing comment on the K6-2-400, something like "its no Pentium 450." Still, I don't think he's dishonest, just misinformed and I expect his opinion will slowly change.

BTW, there's a reason why the P2-450 is hardly any faster than the P2-400. Apparently the 450's cache is interleaved two ways and the 400's is interleaved four ways, resulting in higher performance. In fact, an overclocked 300 (if you can get it to work reliably) will outperform a 450. You have to take any 450 Pentium benchmarks you see posted with a grain of salt, because nobody likes to shell out >$500 for a chip.
