***********************
''Next year, AMD-3D technology will give us an opportunity to distinguish ourselves from Intel and lead the way to visual computing platforms within the Microsoft Windows standard that deliver a near theater-quality experience,''

''In the first half of 1998, we plan to introduce the AMD-K6 3D MMX Enhanced Processor with
initial clock speeds of 300 megahertz and moving to 350 megahertz,''

''Platforms built on the existing Socket 7 and Super 7 will offer superior performance and better
value than competitive offerings through 1998 and into 1999,''

The AMD-K6 3D processor uses new proprietary instructions developed by AMD and supported
by Microsoft Direct X and leading 3D game developers.

30 Percent World Market Unit Share Is Long-Term Goal

Sanders noted that in 1999, AMD plans to begin shipping its seventh-generation processor, the AMD-K7 processor. He said that AMD plans for the AMD-K7 processor to be assembled in a module mechanically interchangeable with Intel's single-edge connector -- ''Slot 1'' -- module and will feature the bus protocols of the Alpha EV-6 processor. The AMD-K7 processor will be capable of clock speeds higher than 500 megahertz.

Roadmap Based On 0.25-Micron Process Technology

Favor said that through AMD's Super 7 Initiative, several vendors, including AMD, will have a 100 MHz frontside bus and Accelerated Graphics Port support during the first half of 1998, enabling Socket 7 L2 cache to speed up by 50 percent.
**********************************
What does a module mechanically interchangeable with Intel's single-edge connector -- ''Slot 1'' mean? Does it mean that K7 would be able to plug into slot 1 without infringement?
