Aaron-- You bring up a good point. As far as I know, NT still relies heavily on floating point operations, that are heavily CISC based. It wouldn't supprise me if Microsquish decided to go cross-platform in the future. Right now, I haven't heard anything about that. NT 4.0, which I run on my PC, is a wonderful OS, but still eats away at my memory. CISC Processing helps relieve this. I believe that Intel will still keep a hold of the CISC cores in their processors for a few more years. RISK processing is great for workstations, in not so great for multimedia tasks. That is why you will see most of the high end graphics come from a Macintosh. -Robert
