Comment on Intel CPU Temperature Monitoring Driver For Linux Now Unmaintained After Layoffs
Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 week agoSure, but if Intel hadn’t made the 8086 and that entire family line was severed, Linux would have just been made for Motorola 68000 series or something. Or one of the Acorn ARM chips that did the rounds at the time.

Oh man, you just unlocked memories of my Mom’s 8086 back in the late 80s… her first pc was an Apple but the software… there was more for the Intel. I remember so much disk inserting and printer interface issues and the DOS.
