Maybe not officially...

AMD on verge of further K7 desktop wins

The Digital Anvil, AMD and Microsoft connection is to deliver further
desktops using the K7 platform in Q3 1999, we can reveal.

The source that told The Register last week of the copper
interconnect K7 in Y2K with a 400MHz bus, today revealed it has
several other customers interested in its products.

He said: "I don't think [the Compaq Presario with K7] will be an
exclusive. We have other customer wins too."

AMD is pitching its PC OEMs with a joint Digital Anvil convergent
technology, but he refused to be drawn on whether Microsoft was
involved in the equation.

He said Digital Anvil will not exclusively work with AMD. "The
market is too small for that and companies like DA depend on
volume, he added."

That means that small company Digital Anvil is being wooed by two
of the biggest x.86 based companies in the world. We understand
other platforms are interested in its technology as well. ®
