K6 logic core is faster than PII

I was quite surprised to find out the truth of this statement after I put a K6-336/112 and a PII-338/75 to run through all kinds of benchmarks. It is truely amazing to witness that K6 performs so well under 112Mhz bus.

The coming K6-3-375Mhz on FIC VA-503+ 125Mhz bus is going to make PII-400 look like a low-end processor from Intel.

Intel has raised up PII prices for the first time in the last three years to screw end users before K6-3 debuts.
