RE:"Too bad they are using Cyrix 233MHz CPUs instead of IDT." The Cyrix MediaGX offers graphics, audio and the chipset basically for free. It will be difficult for the C6 to compete from a price point of view without adding a significant amount of integrated features. It appears that the C6 is caught in the middle. The performance is too low to compete in the midrange, and it does not offer enough value added to compete at the low end. Will future C6 offshoots do better? Scumbria
