Actually you took picky to whole new level. But while we are on the subject of french let me make my pitch for renaming the k-7: the RAPIDE or TRES RAPIDE Rapide is close enough to the english word so that americans will get off on its foreign spin but will know what it means. And the marketing campaign will start off by showing the k-7 chip racing france's fast trains which are some of the fastest trains in world, then over time the german's fast trains, then the japanese's etc. Great, huh? Now the only response to my proposed renaming and its campaign I want to hear is from AMD's marketing department and that would be to find out my address to send me my fee. After this, I will never discuss language on this thread again. ted
