What if the competition had chips every bit as good?
What if, what if, what if, does not make it so, and its not so.

I guess you would still pay more for the 'Cadillac'. I guess luxury buyers wised up some years ago and switched to Lexus and others, you have yet to catch on.
Never owned a Cadillac or Lexus either. Catch on to what ? I want to know AMD's PE ? Oh that's right, they don't have one, why is that ? Oh they give their Lexus chips away.

I guess you are saying CPQ and IBM are selling 'inferior chips' and that consumers should not be buying them. You certainly are entitled to your opinion.
At least you are admitting you "guess", did I say that or does it just fit in with the statement you want to make ?

John - Re: "everything I read says the K6 outperforms equivalent Intel chips..."

How can you "outperform an equivalent chip"?

Equivalent chips are equivalent - are they not?

But the real question is - "What is the K6 equivalent to?"
