<AMD k6-2 cost is something like $35 at their present volumes and Celeron around $65?> Actually, thanks to the Socket Celeron, its cost should be down to $55. The Slot Celeron is still $65. This is according to Microprocessor Report. Tenchusatsu

Hutch - Re: " Remember K6-2 die size is almost half that of Celeron 79mm2 vs 150mm2? " That only means that AMD throws away a lot more die than Intel does ! If AMD's costs are one half that of Intel's, why were their profits only 1/1760 of Intel's last quarter? Paul
