Cybernetic Vermin posted:i find the alpha weirdly uninteresting in practice, since it was so influential that the cooler parts of it are now ubiquitous anyway. compare e.g. the VAX which looks pretty insane by todays standards. go on about VAX architecture plz

epitaph posted:lost in the shuffle: virtual 8086 mode which was introduced with the 386. because people didn't want to rewrite their real mode apps intel introduced a mode with similar addressing only translated by the mmu. this enabled things like ems (remember emm386.sys?) where a small window into higher memory ("page frame") was introduced and could be shifted as needed. allegedly even bill gates called it a terrible hack, but oh well. remember having to care about expanded vs extended memory
