Tech,
<One reason why AMD is not shipping Sharptooth yet is that the
OEMs don't want AMD launching a new CPU right before the
Xmas market, and the other reason is that AMD expects that the
OEMs pay a higher price for this significantly improved product,
which still is subject to negotiations.>"...

Yes, pretty easy to shoot holes in that reasoning...although I hear through the grapevine that the K6-3 has been in production for a while now <wink>...makes some sense that the 400 would be a K6-2+...
