I have a BSc in Computer Science and my whole studies were done in the USA. I am working as a Web Developer, mostly front end but not only. I never said I am an expert on CPUs. GR pretends to be a professor of Computer Engineering but you don't need to be an expert to realize that he is just a clueless salesperson who even if he had some formal education (I doubt he actually has a university degree on any related subject) it was done in the 80s .... his knowledge is now obsolete and he is unable to keep up with the advances of technology. :| He just writes crap e.g that an ancient 80286 is faster than current generation ARM CPUs and then he is trying to support his bullshit by saying irrelevant things about assembly most of which are either incorrect or obsolete as anybody who can search the web for facts can easily find out.

Sure Sure GR. We went off topic for the last several pages because you insist that an ancient 80286 is more powerful than current generation ARM CPUs. :lol: If you don't want to admit that you were saying bullshit as you usually do then you can continue writing crap. Get Real: The person who said that "Helen of Troy was Turkish" and then he insisted than an ancient 80286 is more powerful than current gen. ARM CPUs. :lol: Let me tag your bullshit for future reference: "cfnonsense". ;)

And here are some facts from actual tests comparing smart phone and desktop CPUs: http://www.tux.org/~mayer/linux/results2.html You can download the app to test your own android phone from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... lez.nbench There is a 386 at the very bottom of the list... we can only imagine how low the 286 of GR would be. The benchmark baseline (index = 1) is an AMD K6 233 MHz (Pentium II equivalent). Here are the results:

386
memory efficiency: 0.026
integer performance: 0.026
floating-point performance: 0.021

Google Galaxy Nexus 4
memory efficiency: 4.649
integer performance: 6.340
floating-point performance: 7.731

Oh look… I found a picture of Sotos' computer! :)

http://toddlertoys.files.wordpress.com/ ... ghtop2.jpg


Technical Specifications of the Fisher Price supercomputer:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Pre-soldered ARM-clueless processor (Running at 5 gazillion megahertz because clock speed is all that matters!)

* Generous 1Mb USB Stick storage!

* 5x5cm HDMI graphics (now in WIDE version 5x7cm too!)

* No need for useless Assembly because instead of Windows it runs under Bimbos!

* No device drivers needed… just plug it in and watch… err, nothing happen!

* Direct hard-coded Internet links to eBay and SexMeNow!!!!!!!

* Mono jack for attaching little 1W speakers to it! (Only for TRUE acoustics experts!!!)

* Guaranteed to be faster than an 80286!!!!! (In fact it’s faster than an i7 even because it doesn’t have to do very much anyway!)

* Connect with other Fisher Price supercomputers in the vicinity! (Just click the GO-GO Gadget button!)


Out it goes at just $699 +vat!!!!! 8)

What a waste of resources. You are such a fascist /racist unpleasant individual I'd be very surprised if you got any work from any person or any company for that matter. I cant imagine you being a different person to what you display on this forum, and what I see of you on the forum is most unpleasant.

Dude, they haven’t even matched Windows v1.0 yet! :roll:

Even an 80286 with Windows v1.0 is 1,000 more powerful than any of the shitboxes out there! :lol:

GR, my advice to you is to let this thread die and hope I will feel sorry for you and choose not to use the crap you posted in this thread as another proof of how clueless you are ... even on things you claim to be your profession ;)

You celebrate the invasion, occupation and ethnic cleansing in Cyprus and you call me "fascist /racist"? :lol: If I am unpleasant to you thats a good thing... only treasonous Cypriots would be pleasant to those who invaded us and occupy north Cyprus :evil:
