That's a good point. AMD is just manufacturing Durons and Thunderbirds currently to my knowledge. But it's not impossible to get your hands on an old Athlon. Though I'm not sure if they made a 1.2GHz model. Then there's also Kryotech versions with various clockspeeds on the market. I just assumed that they would be consistant and write T-bird throughout. But I tend to agree with you. The 1.2GHz Athlon is most likely a Thunderbird. Mogens.
