Kap,

<Good idea, but AMD word has too much baggage. "Athlon inside" program will rock. Also consider web sites "Powered by Athlon" program.>

I wonder if the baggage extends to the consumer side! WOuld be interested in seeing some data on that.

In any case, I believe AMD is using "AMD Athlon" instead of just "Athlon" all over the place to ensure they do not get into trademark violation issues with the toilet partition guys.
