[edit] Template Expansions

So I have a lot of experience editing template and before I have too much fun of a template called CPU Technologies (but it was totally more relevant to OS). So do you want me to reorganize this and integrate the Component section into this template? I will leave out the architecture, parallelism, power management since it is non-relevant

[edit] Wrong title, maybe?

Most of this has utterly nothing to do with operating systems. Jeh (talk) 08:19, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

I agree. Marko75 (talk) 20:56, 15 November 2008 (UTC)
