<I bet K6 or K7 sounds a whole lot better than "Celeron", so I ask you, where did they(Intel) find the genius who came up with this latest name?> If I recall correctly, the name "Celeron" came from Lexicon Branding, Inc., the same company that came up with the widely popular "Pentium" brand name. Hey, if AMD is resorting to imitating the Pentium III logo with the K6-III name, why don't they imitate the "Celeron" name and call their future processors the "Asparagon", "Cilantronium," and the "Cucumberon"? ;-) Tenchusatsu
