Mine was an AMD 386DX-40, followed by a 486DX4-100. And over the years, I've remained somewhat partial to AMD based systems, even when they didn't have the edge in absolute performance. So yeah, I would love to see AMD get it together and start kicking ass again.

I also like AMD because they've been at least a little bit more "open source friendly" than some of their competitors (cough Nvidia cough). Which is not to say that they couldn't do more, of course.



AMD 386DX40 --> AMD 486DX5-133PR75 --> K6-2 300MHz --> Duron 900MHz --> Athlon X2 1.5Ghz --> FX4100 --> FX8370E
