The only reason I feel Tony's HP can't be classified as a microcomputer is
because I was taught that a microcomputer utilized a microprocessor, and I
was taught that the definition of a microprocessor is a processing solution
contained entirely on one chip. Anything larger (more than one chip) and
it's a mini. As that definition has always seemed logical to me, I've
always stuck with it.
Hmm... so would a Slot 1 pentium/celeron processor qualify under that
definition.. Personally. I feel I have to catagorise that particular
format of processor more as a daughterboard, not a single chip..
