Re: "Zalesky, Intel has admitted failure of the slot one and now has announced a pin grid array, "like socket 7" for their lower priced line of celerons. They could just as easily used socket 7 but I suspect they did not want to eat that much crow. " Sorry Bill but you are clueless. The P6 family of processors could never work in a socket7. Re: "The celeeron in a slot 1 was totally unable to compete with the AMD offering(and IBM/Cyrix et al) so this is their retreat position." I have posted here several times benchmarks which show the Celeron outperforming the K6-me2 at the same clock speeds, unless of course blasting mutant aliens is your thing, then you should buy a K6-me2. The rest of your post is almost a Fuchipost so I won't bother responding. EP
