Elmer <The same K7 that has never....[blah-blah]> Is it the same K7 that supposed to compete with Intel's Winnipeg (or Williamette)? And this Willi-blah has posted some benchmark scores too, has not it? Could you acquaint us with the numbers? BTW, those benchmarks of the famous 804Mhz Katmai would also suffice... I guess you will have one more unpleasant week of keysevenfobia until Comdex... Hopefully your verbal diarrhea will cure after that..

Elmer, Stop beating yourself in the head. The K6-2-380 is already out....this is evidenced by todays ads in the paper for Hewlett Packard K6-2-366 boxes...on shelves now. The 366 is really a 380 that HP chooses to sell at 366 so they can pack the box with inexpensive parts...or so I hear. The 400 will likely be introduced this week. The K7 isn't really a concern of mine but what do you do with a chip for which there are no chipsets or motherboards available? Besides, the K6-3 is the next chip...not the K7. Let's get that one out of the way first, hey? My priorities are... 1. K6-2-380-400 in volume 2. K6-2-450 in volume. 3. K6-3-350-400-450 4. K7 with necessary support parts. 5. 18u process. That's how I think it all will unfold...or has to. Regards, Jim
