Kevin,

"Note the "for business."

You are right - this may be AMD's trojan horse entry for K6 into business computing. I have already read a review somewhere that K6 is not likely seen as a liability by MIS folks (in the context of Gateway Profile)

AMD needs as much greasing as it can get before K7 volumes show up.

Good Luck,
Chuck

Kevin: re "I can't find the little "Intel Inside" logo."

From the Gateway website page for the Profile:

AMD K6–2 400MHZ Processor – The space saving processor optimized for today's most popular applications

This is just great - now on top of all the other points of discussion and/or dissention on this thread, we can have arguments about MPU form factor! (really, what planet are these marketing people from?) - Tad LaFountain
