Steve & Gordon discuss AMD's new laptop CPU naming problem where, after 17 minutes of discussion, we determine that the year is ultimately the problem for AMD's new naming scheme. This was mostly meant to be a fun discussion at an event where we had just been given a decoder wheel for AMD's new CPU names. The wheel is genuinely really cool, but it does indicate a bigger problem -- needing a decoder ring to understand a product name.
