Hi Roi,

I have 3 PC using K6, 2 of 200Mhz and one 233Mhz. The CPU has better
performance than the Intel MMX at the same speed. I tested 2 identical
systems but the CPU. The AMD is about 10% faster.
I use some no name MB and it works very good, I don't get crashes at
all, neither Linux or Windows.
I bought the board from Mor Levi and the CPUs 2 from Mor Levi and one
from Spiritus.
I saw that someone else pointed that Omnitech has ASUS boards. If you
encounter problems there, ask for Filip. Tell him I (Valentin) sent you.
I worked there some time agao and hi's a good man, and a friend of mine.
Also at Omnitech you will usualy get good support.

Go AMD go!
