>From www.amd.com: The �lan[tm] SC520 microcontroller combines a 32-bit, low-voltage Am5x86 CPU with a complete set of integrated peripherals suitable for both real-time and PC/AT-compatible embedded applications. The device also features a 32-bit PCI bus, a high-performance, 32-bit SDRAM interface and a full-featured, high-performance in-circuit emulation capability, known as the AMDebug[tm] technology. so it's not incorrect, though they might get in trouble with Intel over the use of the Pentium trademark in promotional material for a product based on an AMD microcontroller. Regarding the "computer in an ethernet jack" devices mentioned elsewhere in this thread: good luck trying to run FreeBSD on a 16-bit microcontroller with no MMU or FPU, 256 kB SRAM and 512 kB DRAM...
