"Plain, old K7 is much better than Athlon!! EOM " I can't wait for the "Athlons foot" jokes.

re : Plain, old K7 is much better than Athlon!! EOM Me and JC agree with that statement for the full 101% ;) K7 sounds futuristic, "works" in all languages "kayseven" (english) or dutch (KaahZeyven;) and german and french sound quite ok too. Athlon tough..sounds like some dirt cheap celeron clone...something for that Tiger thing from Rise ...; Tiger would be a nice name for the k7 actually;) Oh and JC and I discussed the names of the chipset, and we came up with Dakota (north and south dakota, for obvious reasons;))) gretz, michael.
