there were references to "collaboration" between msft and amd engineers. amd would dare to put anything like that without msft approval. It is not just another play of xp......

Re: As we all predicted, AMD is leveraging the "XP" name to ride on the coat-tails of Microsoft

And a good job, too.

When do you think Intel will come up with a version of P4 that can work with Windows XP?

"AMD is leveraging the "XP" name to ride on the coat-tails of Microsoft"

There's no way AMD would have adopted XP for Palomino without Microsoft's blessing.
