I wonder why CPQ didn't get the conversion going sooner? It irks me that they have recently been able to achieve gangbuster results without being on the leading edge of Intel's latest offerings. Half a decade ago, CPQ was late to convert from the 486 chips to Pentium & paid dearly for the delay in market share.

>As for Compaq, about four days ago I began to see COMPAQ TV adds for their computers "featuring the Intel
Pentium II processor".

I think Compaq is now trying to get their Pentium II conversion going.
