my comments in italics WSJ: AMD To Launch Worldwide Athlon Mktg Campaign In 4Q By MOLLY WILLIAMS Of THE THE WALL STREET JOURNAL SAN JOSE -- Advanced Micro Devices Inc. (AMD) said it plans to launch an aggressive marketing campaign in the fourth quarter to highlight its Athlon chip's superior performance over Intel Corp.'s (INTC) Pentium 4 chip. [this isn't really news. rather it's one of the few times AMD is sticking to it's plan.] The chip maker will expand and add to its existing programs with a worldwide campaign. AMD said it is looking to distance itself from market leader Intel, whose chips boast higher speed but not always better performance. ["not always"* better performance? AMD's marketing department hard at work. <g> ]* "Megahertz used to be a good indicator of performance," said Aaron Feen, a marketing manager at AMD. "That's not true anymore."
