- Comment wouldn't that restrict it to genuine Intel, instead of being inclusive of compatible, licensed, and clone chips? -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 09:19, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- I thought that's what the "-based" was for, to cover compatibles and clones, etc. Good Ol’factory (talk) 10:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
- When you say Intel 8086, then that, to me means that the chip is a genuine Intel. Since the computer and the CPU chip are two different items, when you say Intel 8086-based, then that seems to me, to restrict it to being only Intel 8086 genuine chips being used as the CPU, and excluding the Intel 8088 and others from AMD, NEC, etc -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 07:20, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
- I guess we interpret the words differently. Good Ol’factory (talk) 10:34, 21 January 2015 (UTC)
