jozef, re: VIA PR 566 and compaq Well if true then AMD could suffer. AMD is shipping lots of 500's, 533's and soon 550's out. I had expected VIA to way behind the MHZ ramp but this is worrying. And compaq and e-machines could ship a lot of machines while AMD ramps up the mhz and gets Athlon ramped. I think Q1 will be great for AMD but Q2 sure gets questionable with lots of oversupply. regards, Kash

Joe If Via can yield 466 MHz parts, the entire K6 line is in danger. I'm of the opinion that whatever Via yields (pr or mhz), the K6 line is not long for this world. I agree with some of the opinions that .18 primarily provides thermal advantages, but not necessarily higher speeds. Today I actually bought a 500 mhz k6-2 for my SS7 box. I was waiting for the k6-2+..... -Scot
