RE: <Intel isn't the only chip in town for information appliances...>

This is a quote from the Techweb article you referenced (http://www.techweb.com/se/techsearch.cgi?action=View&doc_id=TWB19980324S0009)

Actually almost all set top Internet boxes use RISC CPU's rather than x86 compatible. Primarily IDT, Hitachi and DEC.
