I am not sure why the information is so blatant in
its
stupid attempt to ignore anything but Intel hardware
as far a anything that even look like a CPU chip, but
I guess it is an "Intel" museum.
Of course, even now, Intel, in my opinion, is so far
behind from a technical point of view that is is a sad
comment just to read about the products that were
way behind, and still are, the excellence of other
products. No question that if the Pentium 4 had been
produced 10 years ago, it would have been a major
accomplishment.
Well, of course it's a branch of the corporate PR department, what did you
expect?
But the Intel of the 1969-1979 era was a dynamic and innovative company.
Look at the 3101, 1101, 4004, 8008, 1702, 2102, 8080, etc. All the other
companies were playing catch-up.
The Moore article is indepent of Intel anyway, it was written when he was at
Fairchild before Intel was even founded.
