Maxwell - Re: " that the K6/K6-2 is packaged in BGA and runs at 1.8V compared to 2.2V on desktop version. At 1.8V it is well within the thermal envelop of notebook. " This report claims that the "Low Power" K6 runs at 2.1 volts, a rather measley drop from the 2.2 volts of the standard K6. techweb.com " The mobile K6 chips have been specially tested to run at up to 85 degrees centigrade. The 300-MHz chip runs at 2.1 volts and consumes 6.6 watts under typical use in either a ball grid array or pin grid array package. " That's not quite 1.8 volts, Maxwell. Paul
