- 1-2 years and RISC will return in the garage: where it _always_ has been.
- Untill someone makes 5ns main ram (!) and RISC's can go out again, untill
- we get BiCMOS technology for CPU's and at 700Mhz and 20 millions of transistors
- CISC wins again in any case. Unless (perhaps) someone makes 1ns RAM (hhahaha!).
- Sorry, but the future is for CISC processors (as programming structure) with
- as many parts as possible implemented in RISC architecture.
- The damn 80x86 (P6, P7) will give practical demonstration of this.
-
- I am tired to explain it again, I wrote a complete message some days ago in
- comp.sys.amiga.programmer and comp.sys.amiga.games.
