Re: "The sole problem with the K6-III mobile seems to be power consumption and operating temperature. While not overly serious [a problem with the current numbers], this is one area where the Intel chips have an advantage. Even with the move to .18mu, I expect Intel-based notebooks to maintain a 5-10% longer battery-life."

Then Intel's mobile processors are faster, cooler and lower power. So pricing must control the market. Is this another example of AMD's predatory pricing practices or PPP for short? What happens if Intel responds with more aggressive pricing of their own?
