- Have you been reading Amiga/Macintosh propiganda again? I think its time for
- you to take a nap now.
- The P6 is an intel chip which was created not for the average joe. It was
- created to work with true 32 bit operating systems. Win 95 may be touted as
- 32bit, but the truth is, it isn't. Some of the parts are 16bit. The P6 runs 16
- and 8 bit programs slower. Thus the probable decrese in speed. However, there
- is another competitor or rather a few who are coming out with a 686. The Cyrix
- 686 is based on the x86 architecture, whereas the P6 is trying to leave it
- behind, and has incorporated RISC processing. However to make it somewhat
- backwards compatible, the P6 is also a x86 chip. Basically 2 chips in one.
-
- This information was provided by some guy I talked to who worked for Intel, as
- well as another guy at Comdex who worked for Cyrix (and no, I don't remember
- their names).
