Hi Alain,

Thank you for your info. So you mean that the k6-3 will be about 20-30 percent
faster than the k6-2!? Did you test it? Or where can I get more info's about the
AMD-processors? Do you know something about releasedates?

You see that I do have many questions. The reason is, that I want to buy a new
computer in the next time:-).

Best greetings,
Hannu Wegner
