| "We built some prototype desktop workstations powered by AMD Athlon™ MP processors. We had tried systems powered by a competitor's processors, and they worked fairly well. However, we absolutely preferred the performance of the AMD Athlon™ processor. A good part of the advantage comes from the performance of AMD's floating point engine, which is very important to compute-intensive operations such as rendering." |

| "Of course we look for reliability because we can't afford any kind of glitch or computer failure. That's why we love the AMD Athlon™ MP processor-based systems from Soundchaser. When it comes to reliability, our systems are rock solid. We end up enhancing every aspect of making music, and the AMD Athlon MP processor-based systems are a huge part of the reason why." |

| "I knew I wanted Linux on the desktop. I started looking for the best price/performance. We looked at AMD processor-based systems and found they did quite well. The systems we looked at from Angstrom Micro ran dual processors and ran them brilliantly. So we started examining the systems more carefully by running render and display evaluations, and the AMD Athlon™ MP processors were as fast as the competition. So we went and got a rack of AMD systems. My animators screamed for more." |

| "It's all about maximizing the read rate and minimizing the error rate. When we evaluate processors, we're looking at the milliseconds each processing step requires. In our tests, we inject images of test mail pieces from a database. When we ran our test results, AMD Athlon™ MP processors proved to be the better choice." |

| Digital Pre-visualization in "Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones" Redefines the Art of Movie Magic |
| "Pre-visualization serves two primary purposes -- to sell a concept and save time and money. Our goal was to paint an accurate picture of what "Star Wars Episode II, Attack of the Clones" would look like long before filming was even started. Our AMD Athlon™ MP processor-based systems are ideal for running the extremely powerful software we rely upon. People who visit our lab can see how, using these systems, we are able to answer almost all of the creative questions from the start of shooting to the end of postproduction."Daniel Gregoire, manager of JAK Films previsualization lab" |

|
| Corprasoft, Inc. |
| "Our decision to go with the AMD Athlon processor-based systems has been the right decision. We had no doubts that these systems would run our code flawlessly, and be 100% compatible. We've had no issues whatsoever. And we've evolved from a system where our developers were waiting for things to happen to a system where our developers are almost never waiting." |

| "Based on our experience, the AMD 760MP™ chipset has a superior dual processor architecture and uses DDR memory. None of the above is true for the competing dual processor platforms." |

| "We needed to optimize our performance control system software to run at its maximum potential. They (AMD Athlon™ processors) are very, very fast and very, very stable. And the AMD Athlon processors are very well supported by the operating systems that we run on them. We love 'em." |

| "AMD has designed a processor that's more than capable of being used in workstations. To me, AMD is in the home market with a business CPU. I think that's going to change soon." |
