as for the ibm 801, it never did become a telephone switcher 就ibm801而言,它从来都没有成为一个电话转换器。
the ibm 801 started out attempting to solve the same problem as a lot of the computers in the 1970s : switching telephone calls ibm801的目标是解决20世纪70年代很多计算机面临的相同问题:电话呼叫的转换。
like the ibm 801, it was designed from the beginning to run on a broad range of machines, from battery-operated handhelds to supercomputers and mainframes 与ibm801类似,powerpc从一开始设计就是要在各种计算机上运行:从靠电池驱动的手持设备到超级计算机和大型机。
ibm s four families of processors-the power architecture, the powerpc family of processors, the star chips, and even the line of chips that power ibm mainframes-all have a common ancestor : the ibm 801 ibm的四条处理器产品线--power体系结构,powerpc系列的处理器,star系列,以及ibm大型机上所采用的芯片--都有一个共同的祖先:ibm801。
