actually the registry does have a degree of security with acl's
Out of curiosity, how do you modify these acl's in the registry? I don't see anything in regedit that might do the trick. Do you use some other utility?
Would you prefer to have eight registers and a single byte copy- block instruction, or 64 registers and have to replace that copy-block instruction with (*gasp*) three simpler instructions?
You obviously know much more about cpu architecture than I do, so perhaps you could help me with something I don't totally understand: I don't doubt that RISC architechture is simpler, but isn't the executable code for a RISC cpu much larger than the code for a non-RISC cpu? For some things that can be done in one instruction on a CISC cpu, it takes several on a RISC. This would seem to me to take both more code for a program and be more intensive on the system bus by transfering the extra instructions. Am I wrong?
Just a couple more names of Intel CPUs that I didn't see listed: Pentum 2 - Timna Mobile Pentium 2( > 300 Mhz) - Dixon Celeron( 300 - 466) - Mendocino P3 Xeon - Tanner Newer P3 Xeons - Cascades
Not sure about the geographic locations, but I wouldn't be suprised if they all were named after rivers in the Pacific Northwest.

I never realized that so many people thought AOL/TW was an Internet company. To me, they have always been the worlds largest coaster manufacturers.

Heh, that would make lynx and links just about the only leagal browsers.
This may be a bit picky and offtopic, but it irked me somewhat to see the Electronic Frontier Foundation called teh Electronic Freedom Foundation.
