Elmer: And they said the Celeron was a piece of s*it. Does that make AMD only 1/2 a piece of s*it?

Yousef: I think it was either Jim or Maxwell that coined that "catchy phrase" ...

No, actually it was Jerry Sanders himself. In an interview, he referred to Intel's initial response to AMD's sub-$1000 success as "that piece of s--t Celeron." Mr. Flambuoyant himself, the one whose own pinstripes on his suit bears his name, has to resort to foul language when he talks about his arch-rival.

And Atiq Raza mentioned that Jerry was his mentor. Hopefully Atiq doesn't carry away any of Jerry's negative attributes.
