Post by: iamaboringperson on July 15, 2003, 02:36:53 AM: cool name Athlon, is that because you use that CPU? i use an athlon, but an old one

& before you became interested in MorphOS were you an Amiga user?

it interests me to know why people would like to buy morphos/pegasos without being an existing amiga user

I recall, the word “Athlon” is loosely translated as “challenger” or to “contest”. Think of Tri'athlon' sporting category. (Any Greek speakers here?) .

From http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,21173,00.html
"The name Athlon is also a Greek root in the word decathlon meaning contest and is meant to denote strength, power, and speed."

Post by: Athlon on July 15, 2003, 07:47:09 AM: My Yahoo chat nic is athlon and I do have an Athlon XP 1900+ CPU. I have used older Macs and met a person that told me about Morph OS and Pegasos PC.. I have built several Windows systems as well as fooling around in 1979 (High School) with old Univac and IBM computers (God rest his soul). I think that Morph OS will a good alternative to Windows and coupled with Pegasos PC, it will also out perform it. My avatar was taken from a butter fly sight the good old Morpho butterfly (actual name). :-D

That's right, in greek means "contest", "feat", "exploit", and "??????" (pronounced a'-th-lee-ma, for the Amigans try "say -t aathlema" :-D "AE4THLEHMAH" ), is "sport".
