Gateway stealth-launches Athlon PCs...

Even though neither Gateway nor AMD have yet confirmed they're in a little huddle
about Athlon microprocessors, information on the former's Web site seems to confirm
that the deal is on.

Two weeks ago we were told by a highly placed source at Gateway that it was
sending out samples of PCs using the microprocessor.

If you point your browser to this URL, you'll see that the support staff are giving advice
on installing the Athlon microprocessor in machines.

And meanwhile rumours are continuing to fly that Dell is playing around with the Athlon,
although other sources close to AMD plans told us that while the companies had
"talked", it was probably just a way for the heat to be turned up a little on the Chipzilla
front. ®
