Are you saying Powerpc is CISC?
20 years ago someone had windows NT intel version running on an Alpha station using FX!32. The server was too slow to use in any practical way. Granted it was running a hardware emulator, but the chip wasn't that special. Perhaps if things were different we would all have Alpha processors in our desktops and DEC would still exist as a company. But we don't and DEC is long dead. All that I was saying is that the RISC server hardware of 20 years ago is dead.
