Re: So how come they can still afford to advertise k-6 systems?

Compaq, IBM, Hewlet Packard, etc, are the ones putting up the advertising dollars, and since they aren't having to pay much for the K6s (alas!) they have plenty of margin to use to advertise the complete boxes that they sell.

>>>Which reports regarding 100% sell through are you referring to? ... nor have I ever seen an Athlon 650 MHz system.

Yep, that's the sign of a complete sell through.
