<the PII easily out performs the K6-x clock for clock>

<Are you sure about this? Are you hyping again? Celeron 266 (a PII) equals to P5MMX 233 and K6-200. Maybe PII (with cache) will beat vanilla K6 because of Slot 1 or PII (with large L1) beats vanilla K6-3D. >

PII refers to a PentiumII, not a Celeron. Celeron refers to a Celeron. If
you need a clarification, I'll give you one. A Pentium II based system (including L2 cache) outperforms any equally clocked K6x based system with the possible, temporary future exception of blasting space mutants. AMD has chosen their target market. If you fall into this market you may be pleased later this month, I don't know. I don't fall into this market.
