INTEL Amending Copyright Infringement Suit Against AMD
ELECTRONIC NEWS, July 2, 1990, page 8

INTEL's amended complaint against ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES asks that AMD stop
calling its new math coprocessor the 80C287 and using the Intel brand on the
device's packaging. It also asks that AMD issue a declaration that its '287
is not fully compatible and pin-equivalent to two CMOS versions of the part
made by Intel.
