They signed up from very early on. I believe at the same time that Cybermax did.

The list of customers for Advanced Micro Devices Inc.'s speedy new K6 microprocessor reads like a Who Isn't Who: Cybermax, U-tron Technologies, Leapfrog Labs, Micro Express, and Polywell, among other unknowns. Not exactly the household names you're likely to find at the local CompUSA. And that's the way it is with most of the other 33 customers AMD so far has persuaded to use the K6 chip, which competes with Intel Corp.'s popular Pentium and Pentium II. The largest taker, Digital Equipment Corp., ranks No.13 in worldwide sales of personal computers. To date, AMD hasn't cracked the Top 10 PC makers.
