Apologies, but I am lucky to have an excellent memory, and I do get a |
| 8 |
bit grumpy sometimes when another poster has either not read or |
| 9 |
forgotten information that was mentioned earlier. |

As for AMD being American, reading Wikipedia I see they are, but I was |
| 12 |
under the impression they were German. (The OP is in Germany despite |
| 13 |
their anglo-saxon sounding name.) However, I note that they were in a |
| 14 |
joint venture with Siemens, which I guess is where I got that |
| 15 |
impression. Maybe (having gone fabless) a lot of their chips are |
| 16 |
produced by Siemens in Germany - I don't know. |

successfully - where my supplier too has gone bust :-( |
