Re: "The numbers are indeed a *tiny* bit higher "

That was my point. The poster claimed the K-6 beat the Celeron at everything. I showed he was wrong.

Re: "Get the point...Integer calculations are not as important as fpu ones."

To you maybe. I don't care about blasting mutant aliens.

Re: "I don't even think K6 will be very popular under Nt"

Of course it won't. That's because NT exposes the poor performance of the K6. AMD relies on Win95/98 and 16 bit code to bring Intel's performance numbers down. Under NT the performance gap between the K6 & the PII gets even wider. That's why AMD never publishes NT benchmarks.
