gollark: Do I now.
gollark: They *have firmware for* a specific task. They are general purpose computers.
gollark: Well, they can all independently execute code.
gollark: - actual CPU- power management microcontroller on CPU- Intel Management Engine- Intel GuC on CPU (graphics microcontroller)- Intel *H*uC (HEVC microcontroller)- WiFi card microcontroller- Ethernet chip probably has a processor in it- dedicated GPU onboard microcontroller- display panel probably has a processor too, definitely at least an EEPROM- laptop embedded controller for general purpose things- camera microcontroller for debayering and USB- keyboard USB controller
gollark: So do I.
