Question:
Why did you choose the AMD Duron™
name as the product name for this processor? What does the name
mean? |
Answer:
Designed to prolong the life of a
buyer's investment by accommodating new and more sophisticated
applications, the AMD Duron processor will have the capability and
flexibility to meet the computing needs of value conscious buyers today
and tomorrow. Derived from the Latin root "durare," meaning "to last" and
"-on," meaning "unit", we believe the AMD Duron name conveys the qualities
embodied by a product that prolongs the life of a buyer’s investment,
specifically: dependability, reliability and
stability. |

Subject: H-Net* AMD Duron !!! Baru
27 April 2000 : AMD menamakan processor untuk
pasaran low end (sebelum ini mempunyai nama kod Splitfire) sebagai AMD
Duron. AMD Duron adalah seperti AMD Athlon dengan ciri-ciri tambahan iaitu
64kb cache L2 bina dalam pada kelajuan CPU, 200Mhz bus sistem, dan teknologi
enhanced 3DNow!™. AMD Duron akan dipasarkan dalam bulan Jun.
AMD Duron akan bersaing hebat dengan Intel
Celeron dalam pasaran low-end (sub $1000). Walau bagaimana pun kekuatannya
dikatakan setanding dengan Athlon klasik (yang ada sekarang ini).
AMD Duron dikilangkan di Austin dengan proses
fibrik 0.18 mikron Al.
Apa padangan rakan-rakan mengenai nama ini ?
Huduh tak ?
