E.g. especially K6 differ in lasermarkings, revisions, etc., so how deep is your love? Wink

First i only bought on speed, then models (AFR,AFX) and so, and now also revisions if they are extremely cheap or free.

The K6 family (up to K6-III+) have always had a particular interest for me. I collect all variants that I come across, and aim to get all production part numbers, and all known revisions of each of them. ES are a bit more difficult, requiring the availability of money at the wrong times Sad

For me, a different part number and a different core revision both equally indicate a different processor with either different speed or functionality. As I am primarily interested in the technology, I want them all (hehe). I also collect different markings, which is obviously more aesthetic and historic.

I started specifically looking for different revisions on Motorola chips recently, although I am more inclined toward some chip families than others...

I have always been accused of being a little obsessive. I think I am just dedicated (and a little insane, if the doctors would listen! Smile )
