Kevin - Re: "What happens when K6-3 comes out (in a couple short months!) and starts blowing away PII on every benchmark you can think of? What competes against what then?"

Answer - DIXON - same as K6-2 except for 3DNOW and L1 cache size. Both have 256 K L2 cache.

And....DIXON is functional - almost two weeks old!

Best case, K6-3 in volume will be early '99. Guess what Intel has in store for them then...Intel's got the full arsenal loaded. They just choose the best time to attack.
