Cringe - Re: " AMD has always had strong demand for the K6-2. Why would that demand start to wane all of a sudden? From my biased perspective, I don't see that happening."

466 MHz Celerons selling for $170 each which outperform the $209 475 MHz Kmart 62's.

Customers save $39, save on L2 cache and get a FASTER CPU to boot !

Intel's CPUs always seem to boot.

Cringe - Re: " Assuming you are right about the region and that AMD has 9E5 - 1E6 K6-2s they are trying to unload leads to an assumption that AMD has a LARGE portion of its business in the Pacific Rim area."

I said MY SOURCE was from the Pacific Rim.

I didn't say these 900K - 1000 K K6-2's were necessarily WAREHOUSED in that area of the world.
