I certainly don't work for AMD, but I have heard many things about the
Am386.  A year ago, I doubted very much that ANYBODY could clone the
'386...and get it right.  Today, I sing a different tune.  Since you
(the poster) have access to the same information I do, as in newspapers,
trade magazines, etc. I won't bother to restate what has been printed
in those sources.  Likewise, from your statement I can assume that you
have not read that information.  If you had, you too would conclude that
the Am386 will be 100% compatible with the '386.

Since Intel is the sole source of the '386, I think they would be very
interested if anybody were making pirate copies of the i386.  I hate
to say this (especially on a public forum like this), but obviously
the poster is not well informed, or does not keep up with current 
information.
