Marco:

You may be right about in spanish although i thought it was another word that i only can spell phonetically. However 'to go' in french is 'aller" whose tenses are as follows:

Je vais.......... nous vamos
tu va...............vous allez
il vas...............ille vont(?)

Sorry can't be sure on the last one. However i will check my french dictionary and let you know. In french, therefore, to say "no go" would be "non va" (vas is pronounced like va). BTW the phonetic spelling of when you say 'go' declaratively to someone in spanish is 'andellez' i think.

PS As i said before this is not a big deal and frankly it seems more immediate to be worried about the k-7 and its production than about any name or the negative it may cause in another language......don't you agree? I don't think amd is going have to many problems selling the k-7 no matter what its name is. BTW why are you maintaining such a low profile lately? Your come backs were starting to become legend or infamous depending on one's perspective. Its bad to disappoint your fans!!!!
