Jim, The interesting thing to me is that the Dixon is called the Pentium II when it's really a Celeron with 256k/cache. Well, the Celeron is just a Pentium II with 128KB onchip L2. The large die size will prevent this chip from getting into the desktop market The K6-3 is planned for the desktop. How much smaller is it? Plus, Dixon could move to 0.18u in one quarter. I'd like to have one in a desktop. It would eat the P-IIs lunch clock for clock... This is basically the point I was making in response that it might appear as a socket 370 desktop Celeron. Pravin.
