Paul,
AMD killed NX5x86, Great! Who was the leader of design team of Nexgen? Vin Dham. If AMD didn't kill his desigins, what happens to AMD K6 today? Is Vin Dham so important to AMD? Do you see the other smart leaders of AMD's design team? I don't deny Vin Dham's contributions to AMD, but I don't like some ambiguous peole posted the exagerated opinions on this thread. The more we post, the more we know the fact - who is ugly.

Best wishes

James

Paul,

I thought AMD modified their "k5" with NX5x86 "bits".. (you know pieces of the core).. I'm not saying I'm right, just trying to remember back then (I wasn't following AMD of Nexgen at the time.. in fact I _was_ an Intel fan back then).. ;-)
