Pravin, Best Buy has had a CTX K6-2 in their flyer. More importantly. Best Buy has 5 K-6 machines and one Pentium II. 80% AMD systems. Jim

<Not a single K6-2 system beng advertised in today's inserts. . . Looks like the K6-2 announcement was a little premature. > Well they had no choice. They announced in advance they were going to announce on May 28 so what else could they do? EP

Thanks. Thinking about building my own K6-2 266...found what looks like a good ATX MB with CPU for $265...bottom of the referenced page: 204.57.71.8 In case the URL doesn't publish, got to pricewatch.com and go to Tyan MB, page 9, bottom...right MB...not sure about about CPU but after checking with the AMD web page, the Tyan S1592S is approved for the K6-2: amd.com May even go the 300 route? Any recommendations out there? Am running a K6 233 off shelf component build since last September, now low end, at the moment...best computer I've ever owned...
