No, I wasn't, so what? My point is that it still hasn't had wide application in consumer PC's and mainstream processors, though they are implementing some of the architecture into them.

High end workstations like Sun Spark do however use RISC processors. All I said is that it hasn't seen wide applications in general consumer products, Except in some cellphones as Arkle pointed out.
