    They don't have much choice, it's running Windows! Even with this it's probably going to be slow as hell.

    Nice speil Einstein, but while you were attempting to demonstrate your cleverness (Without actually answering the question), you forgot about WinCE, which certainly does run on pure RISC CPU's.

    The only reason they aren't fully RISC for real is because Microsoft wouldn't allow it.

    Don't talk shit, skippy. Oh, and pssst, that tinfoil hat just makes you look stupid.

    Who wants a car that sounds like a f4gort? That damn KITT always sounded like a deep fudgepacker to me. With his nasty little lisp and that horrible "know it all" quality in his voice. Probably likes classical music too. F4G0rt.
