Goutama - RE: "For example, the Presario 1200-XL111 includes a 13.3 TFT XGA display, 500 MHz AMD-K6 processor" That's two Compaq announcements before AMD's version! That is a K6-2, not a K6-2+ as we may have thought. athome.compaq.com Compaq's new AMD notebook (designated with the extremely long model name) use four 475MHz K6-2s and one 500MHz K6-2. That's exactly what The Register said - "Sources close to Compaq plans have revealed that the firm is set to roll out five laptops using the AMD K6-II microprocessor in the near future." But as we guessed, the 256KB L2 cache they said for the K6-2 500 machine was wrong. theregister.co.uk
