AJ, All large volume of manufactured chip by AMD are 0.25. They will not get to 0.18 till the third quarter, they have said so many times. I am sure there are plenty of URL's to confirm this, I just don't have the time to look it up for you. Mani

Aj, RE:"the 475 could be 500's they just could'nt get the yeild up, and 450's are probably 400's, like the 380's are 350's." AMD has never announced a 500 K6-2 or any K6-2 on .18u much less any chips at all on .18u at this time. If 450s were .18u, they wouldn't be running at 2.4v. Someone is pulling your leg. Jim

AJ, RE:"I'm a big fan of AMD, despite it screwing it's shareholders. This new K6III-400 chip is really stupid, as it's just gonna confuse the hell out of everyone while the K7 is now long overdue."... ---From a MHz standpoint, a 400 MHZ k6-III might seem confusing, trust me though, it's fast. Now that AMD has the K6-II it takes some of the pressoff the K6-2 and AMD is not as distressed having to battle the Celeron with it. How long is the K7 overdue? I don't think it is, yet. AMD has said June. Jim
