Steve, "I think that part of the delay in the K6-3 is their attempt to create enough difference in the two products such that cannibalization does not occur. " ---- Let's face it. The reason we haven't seen the K6-3s is because AMD is having trouble ramping and getting enough 400MHz speed parts to make a release. Since megahertz sells (TM McMannis), AMD will have trouble explaining the difference between the K6-2 and K6-3 especially when/if the K6-3 tops at 400MHz and the K6-2 at 450MHz.

Steve - Re: " since Gateway has not announced an entry level system with AMD's K6-2, seems to me that the Gateway-K6-3 system may be such a system. Not good for AMD, IMO. Again we will have to wait and see. " Very perceptive - a good analysis. Paul
