- blastonico 2y agoWhat's wrong with PowerPC, not even a comment here so far. And I haven't heard about it since Playstation 3.
- ryao 2y agoThe site is down for maintenance, so it is unlikely anyone will have much to say. The timing of the maintenance is bad.

- ryao 2y agoThanks. I notice that they stopped capitalizing POWER with Power10. I preferred the capitalization since it stands for "Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC". I wonder whose idea it was to change it.
- skissane 2y agoCapitalisation looks a bit old-fashioned. Memories of LISP, FORTRAN, ALGOL, COBOL, DOS, CICS, IMS, MVS, VM/CMS... Even FORTRAN and LISP are normally Fortran and Lisp nowadays.
- dataf3l 2y agoso like maybe we can still read and comment thanks to the glorious archive folks...
