>>>Good thing the K6-3 runs NT faster than the PII/Katmai!<<< (Kevin) The first benchmarks that came out for Klamath, code name for PII, were not very flattering either. Guess who won that round? >>>I remember hearing similar words about the Cyrix M1. The only problem was that the clock speed on the M1 was not competitive. This forced Cyrix into PR ratings, and low ASP's.<<< (Scumbria) In other words, if all else fails in the performance race, Intel blows them away with processing prowess and Megahertz. That's all the vast majority of customers understand anyway. Tony
