No, I don't see anything wrong with using the 80x86 name- V20s and 
V30s are a little out of date, besides everybody knows they're Intel
80x86 clones. And, as someone else has already noted, people will keep
on calling Intel's Pentium the "586", and when Pentium clones come
out, the Pentium will be called the "Intels version of the 586". You may
see Intel switch back before too long!
