Is that unacceptable? If I can list AMD Athlon, AMD K6, AMD K5, VIA, Cyrix, Transmeta, National Semiconductor, IBM, etc... in the list rather than "x86 compatible". For Alpha we would need to add Samsung, who also made some Alpha dirivitives. For Sparc64 we would need to add Fujitsu. Where does it stop? People owning Intel EM64T machines well know that it is a copy of the AMD64 platform. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
