Reviews

Review by Dave Langford (1980) in Foundation, #20 October 1980[2]

gollark: I expect ĀRM will take over eventually.
gollark: Intel will probably never be the underdog - they have more money and are more diversified.
gollark: Then AMD will be Intel and probably equally anticompetitive!
gollark: Yes, praise the glory of ĀMD.
gollark: Yes, I know, it has a HEDT premium price.
