Pentium, however, is a word that can be trademarked (not patented -- there is a huge difference)

Right, sorry, my mistake, trademarked was what I meant.

I mean, heck, you can buy a new PC for only a couple hundred bucks now that's perfectly adequate for anything short of playing high-end games.

Perhaps it's my starving student status, but to me a couple hundred bucks is a far way from free. I see what you're saying, but there is a big difference between "free" and "almost free" (which I think is what Bill had in mind.
