I agree that Cyrix is dead (at least for now).

I think the Celeron was out there to checkmate AMD.
Intel has no Interest in shipping 300/333/366 for $40-60 parts if AMD is at 400/450.

I think Intel will produce the 433/466 and maybe even a 500 Celery to counter AMD K6-2's.

It's all great for the consumer as 400/450's from AMD and 400/433/466 celery's are all great performing chips.

The only problem for Intel is what this does to PII and PIII.

Regards,

Kash
