This architecture supports the largest variety of CPUs since
most home users purchase these machines. If you have a machine
from any large PC company (such as Dell&trade;, HP&trade;, eMachines&trade;)
chances are that you have either an AMD&trade; or Intel&trade; CPU and thus

chances are that you have either an AMD&trade; or Intel&reg; CPU and thus
fall into this category.</p>
