AMD is becoming audacious....MORON...I LOVE IT!!

Tim Allen has been tapped by AMD as the spokesman for the Moron processor. "I'm happy to be behind the Moron. I'm not sure exactly what it does, but Jerry tells me it has more power and I love more power, ARR, ARR, ARR!"

dave22,

Your expert opinion is required.....what do you thing about tim allen representing the company, and specifically the MORON?

Tech analyst Ashok Minmar said, "The prototype Moron processor has impressive performance and exceeds Intel's Itanium and even their yet to be released Otassium processor in key benchmarks. However, I think it might be the worst product naming disaster since GM sent the Nova to Mexico."

What does Ashok know wrt to the name?!! Otherwise his performance comparison of the MORON to Merced loser is excellent. ;~))

The Moron chip is the first product from AMD's secretive Moron Design Team, and is the first chip from AMD to use the new copper process developed by IBM. AMD plans to start shipping the Moron processor in late August. AMD's stock was down on the news.

I love it.....a secretive team.....I knew it....AMD is holding back....perfect!

ted (who loves AMD, the Naz, blackjack and the MORON!)
