Several years ago, Intel changed how they named their chips from 286, 386, and 486 to Pentium because numbers are not patentable but words are. So, a Pentium class CPU is one which is more recent than 486 regardless of who manufactured the chip. It must have a similar architecture as the Intel Pentium chips.
Words aren't patentable either. However, unique names can be trademarked. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
