I think I've heard of the same library (MMX stands for "Matrix math extensions", IIRC), but can't place it; however, the K6 also carries the genuine intel MMX. You're certainly not losing anything by buying a K6 - performance is in the PPro/PII class, but it fits on a socket 7 mb. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Life is like a bad margarita with good tequila, http://squawk.klue.on.ca I thought, as I poured whiskey onto my granola Running Debian Linux 2.0 and faced a new day. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
