RE:"How about Compaq and Gateway need new POWER SUPPLIES and
MOTHERBAORDS and HEAT SINKS/FANS to handle the 2.4 VOLTS
and 27 WATTS Of POWER !!!!

K63 is a BARN BURNER !

Intel - Pentium III - 500 MHz - 1.8 volts
AMD - K63 - 400 MHz - 2.4 Volts

That's a 33% higher supply voltage for 100 LESS MegaHertz.

For AMD, this is a MegaHURT !"....

Oh sheeez, This company never ceases to surprise me.
I'll bet AMD never told Compaq and Gateway the K6-III uses 2.4v...
(tongue in cheek). Looks like single digits! (TM Stockman)<G>
