<But the fact that P-II sold more chips, as many chip as K6, doesn't explain the superiority of Slot 1 design. >

Jozef, you have seen several posts explaining the differences between Slot1 and Socket7 and you still say there is no proof. May I ask just what it is that you are looking for? From an engineering standpoint it is fairly clear. You've heard the technical points and offered nothing to refute them, yet you continue to say there is no proof. Are you in denial or do you have some point to make?

Jozef - Re: " the fact that P-II sold more chips, as many chip as K6, doesn't explain the superiority of Slot 1 design. "

No it doesn't.

What helps explain the superiority of Slot 1 is Cyrix claiming they have the rights to it (via NSM) and AMD announcing their backside cache program and Slot A architecture from the Dec ALPHA.

Why else would Intel's competitors endorse the Slot 1 (or a SLot A) concept?

They have engineers and their engineers have spoken.
