Paul,
RE:"Is the Sharpy still slated for Feb. 14 launch? - I haven't seem an
AMD press release and that is only 11 days away."

What does a launch date mean without a ship date? Nothing.
The Sharpy should start shipping the in volume the first week of March. If the Pentium III debuts on the 26th then the Sharpy might intro on the 25th. Apparently the Pentium III is already trickling into OEMs so I'd say it's beaten the K6-3 to market and initially by 100MHz. It will be interesting what will happen to the "Pandemonium IIIs" that have already been shipped. Whether or not they will be ID "unflashed", sent as is or recalled.
