We had those at 6th form. Magnificient machines; so much better than the PCs we had at the time.

ARM seems to be doing pretty well now

Always found this scene funny growing up, and yet it turned out to be strangely prophetic. Do think the mobile landscape would be different, not to mention the current Apple technical trajectory. Feels like PowerPC had already lost to x86 before ARM really took off. www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVo9...

Some one else would have come up with a small efficient chip, probably out of necessity, eventually... 🤔👍🏻

a3000/3020s were all over schools here in the early 90s but I never really delved much deeper than playing some games and word processing. we had a risc pc in a school library at one point that had a 386 or 486 on a card so could run windows which was pretty weird!
