Adam,

:O)

New Intel chip:
Will "Willy" arrive, before "Willy" leaves?

OTOH, I don't like WW2 American fighter names being manufactured in a city we firebombed.......just doesn't settle very well. War is war, and I think other chip names could have been found.

fwiw

It seems to be a tradition to morph product names (Paul likes AthWipe, McPanic prefers Floppermine). I don't know what to do with Thunderbird

ThunderTurd. I thought that one would be obvious.

Adam, Spit-up is good (although the act isn't, I remember :-AMD better hope Thunderbird doesn't turn into other Ford products, like Edsel or Pinto.
