Havent hear Tranmeta in a LONG time. I recall when I was at intel in 1996 and I used to work a few feet from Andy Grove... and I would ask naive questions like "how come we cant stack mutiple CPUs on top of eachother" and make naive statements like: "When google figures out how to sell their services to customers (GCP) we are fucked" (this was made in the 2000's when I was on a hike with Intels then head of tech marketing, not 1996) ((During that hike he was telling me abt a secret project where they were able to make a proc that 48 cores)) (((I didnt believe it and I was like "what the fuck are they going to do with it)))?? -- welp this is how the future happens. and here we are. and ask financially stupid questions like: "what are you working on?" response "trying to figure out how to make our ERP financial system handel numbers in the billions of dollars" I made a bunch of other stupid comments... like "apple is going to start using Intel procs" and was yelled at by my apple fan boi " THATS NEVER GOING TO FUCKING HAPPEN" But im just a moron. --- But transmeta... there was a palpable fear of them at intel at that time....
