Elmer - Re: " Just saw an AMD commercial on Monday Night Football. Pretty dumb " I saw this - about 20 minutes into the game. It came less than a minute after the announcers stated that MNF was "brought to you" by Intel's Pentium III. The rapid pace of the commercial rattled off something about the Pentium III then kept repeating "AMD ATHLON", "AMD ATHLON", "AMD ATHLON" - right up until some train crashed into the guy in the commercial. I thought that this was an INTEL commercial trashing the ATHLON, showing the wrecked train while yelling "AMD ATHLON", "AMD ATHLON", "AMD ATHLON" ! I have a feeling that many, many viewers got the same impression - that the commercial was showing how an "AMD ATHLON" would cause that train to wreck. Poor AMD - they can't even get a commercial right. Paul
