Even Intel put out early '386 at 12mhz. Amd did make 25, and 33 as
well. There's the oddball forms taken from 386sx standards like SLC,
SLC2 and SLC3 from IBM and Cyrix. And call them 486 in some forms.
Yuk, LIE, liars! See that is where Intel can not use that multipler
of 3 printed on 486dx4 chips but the AMD 5x86 is true 4x multipler
and unofficially rated at 160-166 mhz. Whoaaa.
