"dude, the more i read you posts the more it seems like either you are a troll "
Oh boy, not another one of those.
A CRAPPLE fanatic's definition of a troll: "Anyone who doesn't think the sun rises and sets on a Mac computer"
Grow up, "dude".
"The fact is, the pentium 4 achitecture is crap"
Come again?
How many processors have you designed again?
For "crap" architecture, its managed to conquer a remarkably impressive share of all PC's sold on the planet, hasn't it?.
Let me know when you think you want to say something that actually makes sense will you?

A CRAPPLE fanatic's definition of a troll: "Anyone who doesn't think the sun rises and sets on a Mac computer" I don't. I couldn't stand Macs until OS X, with its UNIX core, became mature. I hated OS 9, which didn't have protected memory, preemptive multitasking or symmetrical multiprocessing while Windows 9x had the former two and Windows 2000 had the latter one too. Coming up on the turn of the century, Mac users still had to manually allocate RAM to their applications. It may have been pretty, but OS 9 was a technologically backwards OS.
I did, however, appreciate the architecture of the chip it ran on. For a while the implementation was shoddy with Motorola's stall at 500MHz, but Freescale Semiconductor has done a great job with it post-Motorola.

actually, I've made 2 processors in college. go and read some of intels own statements on the P4 (not pentium in general). The have abandoned P4 and are going back to P3 cores (do you understand any of that?).
I think you are a troll becasue
1. you find it necessary to call apple "CRAPPLE" 2. you are deleberately trying to annoy people 3. you insult people in your posts dont bother replying, im not going to feed you anymore. This is just to point out you are a troll to anyone who hasn't figured it out already
