Re: "Oh that must make you feel good to have 100MHz speed advantage. Too bad the 400 and 450 are not mainstream PCs. On the other hand, AMD is ecstatic to be able to make and sell all the K6-2-350 for good ASP. This has always been Intel domain and now AMD is invited to the party and a member of the country club. Only a year and a half ago AMD was hungry and homeless and had no one to adopt the K5. Next year AMD will be voted as president of the country club with the K6-3 and K7." Maxwell you are wrong. The 450 & 400mhz PentiumII processors are mainstream, you must be confusing them with Xeon processors. Also don't forget that a year and a half ago was the last time AMD posted a profit. AMD has never seen a profit while shipping K6 processors and I suspect they never will. EP
