Buckwheat , re. at what point equivalency with PII attained ..
When K6 clock speed is above Pentium MMX clock speed then the only point of comparison will be with PII . In addition when K6-3D is released it will not be a Pentium MMX equivalent nor for that matter a PII equivalent but will stand on its own merits as being the best cpu available for Games and video applications.

Buckwheat - re:<25% less than WHAT?> I saw something from AMD very recently that led me to believe that the new K6-3D chips will be priced at -25% with respect to Pentium II's, not P55C's. I expect the same thing with respect to notebook chips, but AMD may get to both 266 and 300 MHz first.

Don't think cacheless P2 arrives until mid-year.
