regarding RISC's. I am probably showing my ignorance (not unusual), as the only information I have on RISC is the article in COMPUTER a few years back (Sept 82, i think). Anyway - my question is whether this thing is designed to be a single user machine only, and if not isn't context switching with all those registers somewhat expensive? Same question can be asked about the pyramid machine.
