Joey Re <<I think the K6-2 400 is still not priced low enough to where it needs to be. In other words, there still is supply trouble.>> So does that mean that when Celeron was priced higher than k6-2, there was a supply problem with Celeron? How about K6-2 450 Vs Pentium II 450, is there a supply problem for PII 450? The point is, your assumption that consumers buy PC based on some specific benchmark is not correct. Demand is based on many other factors beside one specific benchmark. You can also interpret the pricing discrepancy on the assumption that consumers rather have an "AMD K6-2 with 3D Now!" more than an "Intel Celeron". Who knows what the real reason is and whether it is justified. Mani
