The reason I added that section was to try and generate links and interest in a proper Intel / AMD article, and for more work to be done on the [[MOS Technology]] article. In your opinion, is there some kind of proper way to tell readers "hey here are some common CPU manufacturers, if you're interested" ? My goal wasn't to list all of them... just some common ones. Put yourself in the shoes of someone that didn't know what a CPU was before seeing the article --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 15:54, 8 April 2007 (CDT)

:Sorry if I sounded harsh in that last comment... looking at the article I see the external links section which kinda serves that purpose. Do you think this article could be broken out a little more? On CZ the policy is more of a "layman's definition" on the main article, and if someone wants to dig deeper they can. Maybe [[History of the CPU]], [[CPU Manufacturing]], [[CPU Design and Implementation]] need to get broken out into their own articles? --[[User:Eric M Gearhart|Eric M Gearhart]] 16:00, 8 April 2007 (CDT)

Manufacturers section of CPU

The reason I added that section was to try and generate links and interest in a proper Intel / AMD article, and for more work to be done on the MOS Technology article. In your opinion, is there some kind of proper way to tell readers "hey here are some common CPU manufacturers, if you're interested" ? My goal wasn't to list all of them... just some common ones. Put yourself in the shoes of someone that didn't know what a CPU was before seeing the article --Eric M Gearhart 15:54, 8 April 2007 (CDT)

Sorry if I sounded harsh in that last comment... looking at the article I see the external links section which kinda serves that purpose. Do you think this article could be broken out a little more? On CZ the policy is more of a "layman's definition" on the main article, and if someone wants to dig deeper they can. Maybe History of the CPU, CPU Manufacturing, CPU Design and Implementation need to get broken out into their own articles? --Eric M Gearhart 16:00, 8 April 2007 (CDT)
