If the K6-2 is so bad why are you still an AMD investor? You just lost a third of you investment.

BTW, the CeleronA 366 beats a K6-2-400 slightly in the infamous ZD/Intel Winstone 99. The K6-2 blows it away on Winstone 98.
I can't wait for the ZD/Intel benchmark they come up with for the Katmai. <G>

Re: "He has a ton of data showing AMD K6-2 performance vs. Celerons and Pentium II's."

Pretty dramatic. The Intel CPUs clearly outperform everything AMD has in nearly every test. And most of those were run under Win98!!! Had all tests been under NT the gap would have been wider. Clearly K6-2 ASPs and headed into the tank.
