I actually have a K6 in a PC at my vacation residence. It was a cheap upgrade to a socket7 MB.

Cirruslvr,

Re: "Would Engel, Elmer, or Yousef ever think about buying or recommending
an AMD-based PC ..."

You are right, Cringe ... I wouldn't buy a 350mhz K6-2 that I would worry
about whether it would "boot" each time ... or ... Risk getting a "recycled"
CPU that Fuchi had "jacked up" to 3.3V to try and overclock to 366mhz. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef
