Short blurb at Inforworld on HP laptops using AMD PowerNow K6-2+.

infoworld.com

Can't copy text from the page - it says there are four laptops at 533 and 550 MHz using the chips.

Jim, Re: 750 Mhz is no biggie

Well, but don't forget that most folks aren't overclockers, and many may not even read the reviews, and don't know that a 700 MHz Duron is the equal of an 850 MHz Celly II.

So, for marketing of value systems, having an offering that clocks 50 MHz higher might be a big deal.

They are daring Intel to release higher Celly IIs, which may well cut into the heart of Intel's P3 production. Seems like a sound strategy.

Doug
