どうしてPOWERとPowerPCを混同するのか？ (スコア:-1)
発売前に流れていた、IBMの710Expressが採用されたとか、4コア8スレとか、あたかもPOWERを連想されるようなリークがあったり
当の任天堂ですら「IBM Power®を基にしたマルチコアプロセッサー」とか吹聴してみたり
そんなデマを信じている内に、我々も「たかがゲーム機にPOWERが乗る時代が来たのか…」などと考えてしまったが
実際には全然全くそんなことはなく、いつものようにPowerPCが乗ってるだけ
XBOX360の時も馬鹿共はPOWER5が乗るとか吹聴していたし、当のMSもPOWERのデチューン版などと称していた
一体全体どうしてPOWERとPowerPCを混同する
