Bon apparemment, c purement commercial :
"Unlike other AthlonXP processors we have reviewed, the AthlonXP 2100+ uses AMD's new green FC-OPGA packaging. Previous processors used a rather drab brown colour which has since been discontinued. This was done because of consumer's reaction to the brown colour, and to reinforce the AMD logo."

Et aussi :
"The Athlon XP 2100+ is the first XP launch processor to utilize AMD?s green substrate; previous XP processors were brown. AMD will be transitioning all of its XP chips to this green packaging, although brown 2100+ processors are also in circulation. Other than the new color, the organic packaging of the XP 2100+ remains unchanged. Don?t expect any difference in performance between a brown XP processor or a green one unless you?re into coordinating the color of your processor to your motherboard, neither chip has an advantage over the other."
