I'd guess that K6 is closer to a PPro than a Pentium. With the advent of the CTX core, with MTRRs and such, it moves that much closer to a PPro-ish chip. Simply because it sits in Socket-7 doesn't relegate it to Pentium-land. Using that rule of thumb, the new Celeron-370 chips would be Pentium chips too.
