Re: "How could an early 1996 document discuss a term that wasn't used by Intel until 1997?" That's right Paul. Think about it. Concentrate and try to answer this question: Is Intel deriving any additional incremental revenue attributable solely to MMX, per processor, from that agreement? Another way to think about it if it still doesn't make sense: If AMD were making their procesors without MMX, would they pay any less in royalties to Intel, per processor, than they do now? I think you'll agree with me that the answer to both questions is no. Kevin
