<I find it rather interesting how Intel is attempting to manipulate the public with meaningless value propositions:>

You mean like how the AMD marketing guy tried to differentiate between the K6-2 400 and the Celeron 400 by giving these two rather "meaningless" value propositions:

1) K6-2 has 100 MHz bus
2) K6-2 has 3D-Now

If KNI has no "substantial value to the consumer," nor does 500 MHz over 400 MHz, then I fail to see how these two K6-2 features hold any value as well.

P.S. - I'm not saying that the 100 MHz bus and the 3D-Now instructions make absolutely no difference for the K6-2. But I do like to point out that without these two features, the K6-2 wouldn't even be close to a Celeron.
