I’m just curious why some AMD 5x86s are really labeled very differently than others

Some have almost nothing beyond the 486dx5-133 on it and others have lots of stuff printed and even say Made for Windows 95

Is this some sort of date or revision thing?

Just for marketing purposes would imagine.

Apparently 32-bit is dead and nobody likes P4s.
Of course, as always, I'm open to correction...😉
