[edit] diff between
Very fascinating! And I'd VERY MUCH appreciate a sub section to this article which specifies the ins and outs of precicely this, what exacltly is Power Architecture from a technical standpoint. A description of the RISC arcitecture, and so one might separate it from similar description of ARM, Sparc, MIPS or x86 for that matter. But in a more narrative manner perhaps. -- Henriok 22:13, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
POWER has always incorporated 'RAS' features, PowerPC has similar features but no were near to the extent as POWER, yet PowerPC's 'RAS' features have made PowerPC a likly choice for military, aerospace, and embedded application were data integrity is paramount. To give you an idea PowerPC incorporated some 'ras' features in 1993, x86 is starting to get 'ras' in 2006, would you send a rover a few million miles away were timing is critical and you couldn't guaranty code execution well you would if you used x86. These are some of the reason why PowerPC is so popular amongst military and aerospace applications, "RAS" CODE EXECUTION INTEGRITY. It all started in the "America project" POWER1 was 11 chips, why partially because of 'RAS'. 'Reliability Accountably Serviceability' has been part of the design from day one{1988}.
x86 gets 'ras' in 2007, maybe then you'll understand.
"arm" who cares if you phone crashes maybe less then 1% of operation. "x86" do you think Boeing gonna trust a few thousand tons of steel over your head on x86, no they use PowerPC.
"ras" = .99999999999999999999999% x86 crashes all the time{heat,radiation,cosmic} try using this in a satellite.
[edit] Switchblade
I added a link for the other plane at Northrop Switchblade also. You would think that such a big company would be able to come up with a novel nickname for each of its planes. Are you interested in military topics? --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) 19:02, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
- Heh yeah! I have always envied the never ending creativity by the military-industrial complex to come up with cool codenamnes for equally cool projects, but this time they really let us down. My real interesst is in military aviation or anything really which pushes the boundaries of technology. -- Henriok 07:48, 26 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] IBM POWER vs Power Architecture
I made a mistake when proposing the merger. I just removed the merger note. Thanks for pointing that out! --Gortu 22:23, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Motorola G5
I have to say that in reference to my edit made on Motorola G5 project... It is original research and probably shouldn't have been mentioned. I interviewed a high level Apple person who was made to do give a technical sales pitch for the school I was attendending and after talking about the IBM G5, he mentioned that they would have had a whole other machine if something else had happened. I probed him asking was he talking about the Moto chip -- he gave me a perplexed look and said to the person who he was trying to convince the G5 was a worthy chip that indeed Moto had a chip a year or two previous that apple was going to use, but it failed the early stages of mass production and seemed to need a full rethinking. Apple was pissed that they weren't getting their chip and asked IBM what they could do -- and soon enough the G5 was born. I don't have any published sources, only quotes I wrote down from this manager whose job it was to work with the 'PowerPC' alliance. -- MrMacMan 23:27, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PowerPC 600 page
Are the various PPC 6xx chips similar enough that a page covering all of them makes sense? I get the impression that all the G3 chips have similar designs, and all the G4's do, but that the 601, 603, 604, and 620 had significantly different core designs. Guy Harris 09:22, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
- They do certainly differ technically but they could be grouped together in a historic perspective, just as I've done with the PowerPC 400 family. Since these processors are of yeasteryear, I don't think that the technical similarities or differences are the main thing, but the historical. Even though one might fill long articles with intricate details about either chip, I'm not the one who's prepared to write those articles, and this is the best I can do.. If I don't do something, I'd be surprised if anyone did anything. As it stands now, the separate articles are in a pitiful state. Time is not our friend here, and soon there will be hard to find any information about these processors. And besides that.. they do share the name for some reason. -- Henriok 10:57, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Image:POWER4multichipmodule.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:POWER4multichipmodule.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Chowbok ☠ 16:23, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Terra Soft Solutions
Thank you for defending the Terra Soft article. Needless to say, I don't think it should be deleted either, but I've done about as much work on it as I'm inclined to do, so I'll leave it to the AfD bureaucracy to decide whether its existence is an offense to the community.

[edit] eFUSE article added
I've added an article about the eFUSE. Mind looking it over and telling me if you think it's accurate? Thanks! --Audiodude 18:59, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Power Architecture Logo
I removed the Power Architecture logo from the Mobius Strip article, because the use did not meet it's fair use rationale. mrholybrain's talk 21:11, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Yellow Dog Linux screenshot
You're right, it is. That's pretty subtle though. I haven't worked much with localized non-English computer systems (the only one I can think of was a WinXP computer at a hotel in Quebec, Canada which was in French) and I guess I just expected that most of the UI would have been in Arabic. I suppose I also would have expected the description on the image page to note that it was an Arabic localized system as well. -- Hawaiian717 18:15, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
