Re -- I've noticed a number of adds for K6's have been pulled off pricewatch.

Anyone know how much testing/sampling the K6-2 with new instructions/improved floating point has gone through.

I suspect very little. FPU's can be plagued with bugs and needs thorough testing.

Jim,

Re: "I've noticed a number of adds for K6's have been pulled off pricewatch ..."

Since AMD didn't immediately come out with a "promised" 350mhz version
of the K6-2, I wonder if AMD is having "supply" problems ??

What do your "tea leaves" say, Jim ??

Make It So,
