Kevin - Re: "When is Dixon due to appear? "

My guess is that Intel will offer DIXON as a Pentium II Mobile CPU in the fourth quarter.

The on-chip L2 cache will simplify the fabrication and complexity of the module.

Re: "So is K7. In fact, there are functional samples of K7 out there that are probably even older, according to my info."

Yes - you and Petz and McMannis get all kinds of spiffy rumors on that "Private Thread" describing the yield breakthroughs and burgeoning AMD profits.

The rest of us simply wait for the quarterly earnings report to get the real truth.
