Re: "Plus, K6III does not have KNI nor the security features of the Pentium III."

Amusing how you try to spin an irrelevant feature and a negative feature into a net positive.

I think the K6-3 400 will outperform (or perform on par with) a PIII-450 with only 1 mb of cache on the motherboard (most mobo's now feature at least this much) in office aps.

Re: "The K6-3 is about the same die size as a Pentium III plus it requires MORE L3 cache than the Pentium III requires L2 cache."

I guess it never occured to you that the SRAMs used on the Super 7 boards are DIRT CHEAP while the 250 MHz SRAMs used in the PIII brick are EXPENSIVE. More than twice as expensive, actually.
