of the K6-2's comes from the fact that many of them were packaged with bargain computer system's because they were priced way lower than comparable Intel offerings at the time.
So you'll see a K6-2 running on a generic motherboard probably with integrated sound and video, usually a 150W PSU and PC-100 that should pass for PC-66 as well as a heatsink better suited to a 486.
If some of these people could see what a K6-2 or 3 could do coupled with some good quality hardware then it would tell a different story.
Tell this to the fellow looking to buy his next Compaq and it won't register. Buy the way, my K6-3 runs cicles around the P3 Dells at work at maybe a quarter of the price.
