The people of this small town in Colorado (all 65 of them) are pretty thrilled that Intel named it's latest platform after it.

Flabbergasting locals, technology giant Intel Corp. code-named its most advanced computer chip after the largely unknown town, located some 200 miles southeast of Denver. Dilapidated buildings and a decaying sign boasting of the nation's smallest jail welcome drivers from the west into this sunbaked farming community of 65 residents.
 
I liked "Coppermine" because while AMD had moved to copper interconnects, the Coppermine P3 was still using Aluminum. :p
