[edit] µP family subcats
It may or may not be worthwhile to try to distinguish "individual" processors from "families". Messy because "individual" types often have a range of submodels with different power use, speed, peripherals, etc. Stan 16:42, 16 Jul 2004 (UTC)
- I have used the following self-devised guidelines when defining the subcats x86 microprocessors, 68k microprocessors, and 65xx microprocessors: the main architecture article, as well as the initial processor and particularly important members of a family have also been included in the present category, due to their general significance. The other family members are included in the family subcat only. Also, so far "my" subcats have been restricted to families of 10+ members. How about this? --Wernher 05:29, 25 Nov 2004 (UTC) aka The Wild Categorizer™ :-)
[edit] benchmarking
gedday all, there is no article on benchmarking processor speeds (that I could find). I discovered this when I was buying a second hand computer... how fast is that 1gig PIII vers that 666mhz celeron... etc intel publish the benchmarks here.. is it worth cutting and pasting this into an article?

[edit] HP processors
Where should the Hewlett-Packard range of processor chips be included? For example Capricorn, which was used in the HP_series_80. Other processors include Nut, Halfnut and Saturn as listed http://www.brouhaha.com/~eric/hpcalc/chips/ 81.154.222.142 23:39, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
