Been working on it for a while, but it is now live and working.

The CPU Shack Blog: http://blog.cpushack.com/

In my daily hunt for new processors, and other chips for the museum, as well as information about new chips, I constantly come across interesting chips, in strange locations. Here you will get a chance to learn WHERE many of the chips in the museum come from and what they are.

Also you will learn about some of the latest trends and news in the microprocessor and controller industry and what they mean to our future as collectors, as well as to technology as a whole.

all posts open for comment of course Smile

It looks like you are off to a good start. I notice the text in the "Tags" list is a bit misaligned. Otherwise, very nice!

Umm, apparently the article on AMD's "semporn" chip is not ready quite yet? Wink
