"It was hard to resist being glib and titling this article, "Much Ado about Very Little". That feeling of disappointment comes from seeing so much new technology introduced all at once, and then finding out the real performance benefit is extremely small"

WBMW, Intel execs have already said in interviews that they were inspired by BMW's numbering scheme.

Thank God they weren't inspired by Acura's lettering scheme. To this day, I STILL can't remember which letters correspond to which models. I liked it better back when they had names like "Integra", "Vigor", and "Legend." Now it's RSX, TL, CL, XL, LL, LA, whatever.
