Scumbria,
Or maybe AMD has sold out all it's K6-2 production for the quarter and isn't able to shift significant resources to the K6-3 just quite yet.

Please tell me, where does the K6-3 fit in in marketing terms?

Jim

Re: "They probably don't want that extra 15-20% performance at the same clock rate. It has been my observation that most CPU companies would rather play around with a superior pin-compatible product than sell it."

I suspect we will hear the same story about the K7. They will want to get it juuuuussssst right before they introduce it. Even though it's ready to go right now.
