<AMD can spin it any way they want, but the consumers are saying it's K6 vs. Celeron.>

Funny how they are bragging that their latest K6-2 475 MHz runs faster than the fastest Pentium II. Of course, they neglect to mention that:

1) The K6-2 is a competitor to the Celeron, not Pentium II
2) The K6-2 running at 475 MHz probably performs worse than a Pentium II running at 450 MHz (and perhaps on-par with a Celeron 433)
3) Intel isn't pushing the speed of the Pentium II anymore. It's all Pentium III from here on.
