PRESS RELEASE

While testing thier new 10.8 GHz processor currently in devlopment, Pentium Technologies recently tore a hole into another dimension.

When asked about this unexpected side effect of building the worlds most unnessarily powerful processor chip, Lead Designer Barry Wilkins simply replied "That was BOSS!"

Athlon spokesman Harold Carmichael has accused Pentium of of gross mismanagement, claiming that by not making any real technological advancements in their processors and simply using more power, Pentium has potential brought the world to the brink of destruction.

In response Wilkens accused Carmichael of being a "player hater" and claimed "I'm rubber you're glue..."

"We never expected something like this to happen," said Wilkins, "But its pretty [expletive deleted] COOL! Look at this." Wilkins then through a clock radio through the space-time rift to the result of hearing a faint "ouch".

I found it to be funny... I just didn't reply because it is more funny seeing everybody say they hate it
