I've frequently claimed was to take hardware in the opposite direction of the (failed) future system effort. http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/submain.html#futuresys Part of the 801 story was that the simplification of 801 hardware could be compensated for by sophistication in the software; pli.8 compiler and cp.r monitor. for the fun of it ... recent reference to old benchmark numbers of pl.8 with pascal frontend against pascal/vs (on 3033) http://www.garlic.com/2010m.html#35 RISC design, was What will Micrsoft use its ARM linces for? to this old email http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2006t.html#email810808 other recent posts w/reference to 801/risc http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010l.html#39 Age http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010l.html#42 IBM zEnterprise Announced http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010m.html#33 What will Microsoft use its ARM license for? http://www.garilc.com/~lynn/2010m.html#45 Basic question about CPU instructions recent reference to John wanting me to go with him on disk head pitch: http://www.garlic.com/~lynn/2010m.html#44 IBM 3883 Manuals -- virtualization experience starting Jan1968, online at home since Mar1970 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
