cp. PCWORLD & PCMAGAZINE I saw at the newsstand both PCMagazine, and PCWorld(which i bought and will refer to below): the December issues both featured prominent reviews of the c6...the thrust of the articles (i skimmed the former, and lighter of the two quickly) is GREAT VALUE, and in essence, the arrival of a formidable THIRD company fighting for a piece of Intel's business. ( They appropriately quote Glenn Henry in PCWorld referring to AMD and Cyrix, however, as their true competitive targets: Henry sees the c6 cudtomer as value- conscious buyers not afraid of a no name. I recall these exact points raised in so many words by all of you savvy threadsters...) In PCWorld: "CENTAUR INSIDE": Means High Performance on a Small Budget highlights win95 business applications performance as nearly equal to its competitors, and actually MATCHING INTEL HERE at a cost 34% LESS. More news: they mention AES Computers, in Texas, as the first third tier system vendor to come forward to sell it. (used for benchmarks) "But more are expected to appear by the time you read this." Maybe at Comdex? randy
