#132807 - RISC ??? back then ???
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The only RISC I remember from before 1980 was the Signetics 8X300. It had 8 instructions and a recent geometry reduction enabled them to execute in 250 ns rather than the previous 300.

They were "interesting" instructions, though.
