OK, I've just finished wading through a pile of postings, on subjects
remotely connected to computer architecture. It would be real nice, if
the people who are discussing C optimizations move to comp.lang.c, and
the people who think that TRON is Japan's answer to UNI, would move the
discussion to comp.os.misc. Or even comp.os.tron, I don't care!
On a related note, isn't it about time we split this newsgroup into two
separate components? One for CPUs (RISC vs CISC), and one for everything
else. If I see one more article on 'why RISC is better than CISC', or vice-
versa, I'll scream. In summary, there's more to Computer Architecture than
the number of transistors on the CPU!! Thanks...
