Sam's Club website. Is this the Athlon replacement?

A dark skinned person I know is intent on calling it a &quot;Afro-lon&quot;, and I almost piss myself everytime I hear him say it. :D

Other favorites are: Palimino, Palamino and other creative mistakes for Palomino. :)

For &quot;Athlon&quot; there is also &quot;Athalon.&quot; :)

From the Tiger Direct catalog I received yesterday (talking about the VIA C3 processor):

&quot;...delivering ultra low power consumption derived from its inovative design and advanced 0.18 micron manufacturing process.&quot;

&quot;The first processor in the world to be manufactured using a leading edge 0.18 micron manufacturing process...&quot;

No wonder people don't know what the hell they're talking about...

<< No, a Duron is a Halfalon >>


I want one of these Halfalons then. ;) I'll overclock it to a Threequarteralon.
