: Fun, the only problem is that MS and Intel will be supporting only x86

: code always take a backseat at MS.

My ancient WinNT 3.1 beta CD has both Intel and MIPS binaries.

I thought Microsoft and DEC just got into bed and MS announced that Alpha
now has the same priority level as Intel. 

If PPC has such lousy support why do I have an advertisement for a DUAL
PPC 604-133 running WinNT?
