No. The AMD 'Athlon' has the usual x86 instruction set, plus some extensions found in older AMD processors like K6-II and K6-III (3DNow!, replacing Intel's ISSE stuff). If that weren't the case, nobody would be using that new processor for Windows machines, would they? -- Hans-Bernhard Broeker (broeker AT physik DOT rwth-aachen DOT de) Even if all the snow were burnt, ashes would remain.
