Yea. I think some of thier 486dlc chips also bore that little emblem.
Don't worry. I used to run OS/2 on an AMD486 and on the 486dlc. The
processors are completely compatible with Intel's as far as I've been able
to see.

Ugh... this takes the cake.
I was pulling apart a 486 logic board, and I pulled the
heat sink off the
chip... to be greated with an AMD 486 chip with "Made for Microsoft
Windows" and the Windows logo stamped on it.
What... no other OS is supposed to use an intel
compatible processor?!? I
am sure anyone that bought this chip to use with any other OS probably
paid an MS tax because of that stamp!
Just for that, I think I might see if I can get my
Intel build of
Rhapsody to install on it.
Ok, so it isn't 10 years or older, but at least you
people can understand
the pain.
