Understanding the Microprocessor

Posted by michael on Wednesday December 4, 2002 @04:09AM from the need-to-know dept.

Citywide writes "Ars has a very thorough technical piece up entitled Understanding the Microprocessor. It's pitched lower than many Ars articles (all of which are a bit over my head, to be honest), but that's why it's worth checking out: it explains the fundamentals is a very clear and useful way. And as the author notes, this kind of information is really crucial to get a grip on before Hammer arrives."

Colour me happy, I got a TROLL point. And that wasn't even for a blatant troll either.
Woo hoo!
