Ten,

Of course, Via's poor FPU makes for very bad publicity. "Are you sure you want to sacrifice 3D and floating-point performance, not to mention reliability, just to save $50 on your PC, ma'am?"

The Cyrix III processor has the MXi FPU, which is supposed to be faster clock for clock than the PII FPU. Cyrix processors were never considered any less reliable than Intel processors.
