The numbers on the k6-300/3d vs the Pii400 are using the 3Dnow
instructions. If you do not use these instructions then it is no different
than the curent k6-300. Unless Linux and or Linux software is written to
take advantage of the 3Dnow instructions I'd not spend the cash for it and
do the K6-300 or the M2.
