Re: "AMD jacked up the voltage on their K63-400 and K6-3 450 and K6-2 450 and K6-2 475 to 2.4 volts - from 2.2 volts !" We're all well aware of this Paul. Get over it. I think Yousef's suggestion that "wire cutters" and a "screwdriver" were 100% responsible for AMD's move up to higher speed grades is pretty absurd. I'm sure not even you would be ignorant enough to make that kind of argument--and you're a retiree who's been out of the business for probably a decade. Kevin
