Curious, why were you a fanboy? Is it like rooting for team red and all the fun that goes into it? Honestly wondering since I have no feelings for any company even if their products are amazing.
- calvano915 6y agoI've been a fan for much the same time period yet never owned an AMD powered device, except maybe a game console? AMD has been useful to keep Intel on top of their game, but Intel has been on top for most of the last 15 years give or take.
- systemvoltage 6y agoThat's awesome. I want some of the old school Intel memorabilia and souveniers like this one. Intel had such a great brand back in the 90's: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1997-Intel-Inside-MMX-Bunny-People-Plush-Spaceman-Lavender-Metallic-8/333746429567 https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1997-Intel-Inside-MMX-Bunny... You guys remember the blue man group? Good days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH0PYQl65LU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH0PYQl65LU
- passive 6y agoIt was really about them being an underdog, more than anything. Challenging the big dog and occasionally forcing them into more consumer-friendly behaviors. That said, I still ended up owning mostly Intel CPUs (a lapped Celeron 300a running at ~514mhz in the K6 days).
