- qubex 7y agoFor those not “in the know”, the PowerPC 615 was a never-released design that was pin-compatible with the Pentiums of the day and would have been able to run x86 and PowerPC (in both 32- and 64-bit variants).
- justinjlynn 7y agoI had no idea that existed. That would've been interesting. It'd be fun to see something like that in the future.
- qubex 7y agoA lot of the engineers ended up at Transmeta. I vaguely recall that it was a power hog.
