We probably need good abbreviations for terms like 'P* generation' as opposed to 'P* processor'. The general market development on this is to use 'P*' for both. The context is to resolve the rest. Must 'P4' processor necessarily mean the 'Pentium 4' processor ? If not we have a more consistent scheme of things. For the latter then you have to speak the latter.
The next thing is of using things like '*86'. This is ok, except possibly when we have have multiple wild cards (when we strain the quantifiers).
