GlobalMarine: Re: "Niceguy: Recent press releases omit the "AMD Athlon(TM) Processor Awards Aroundthe World" list. I rather liked this list, as it helped cement the notion that Athlon is a world-beater. While it did take up a lot of room on the press release, most of us get the press release electronically so the space doesn't matter. I would have liked the list toremain and grow for at least the remainder of the year (esp. with Thunderbird due out soon). Comment:Excellent point...One can only assume that AMD figures that they have gotten what they need from the award testimonials...I suspect that AMD is currently besieged by more demand than it can supply as the Athy has now taken on a life of its own...I also suspect that, with large potential new customers, the award testimonials would be presented in hard copy! My sense was that these award testimonials were an extremely powerful marketing tool and that once supply catches up with demand they may indeed resurface!
