Any words stick out there "Intel x86 embedded microprocessor". Embedded! An
embedded microprocessor is one that is included in devices like air
condition controls. They perform a fixed set of commands. When was the last
time you asked when you were buying an air condition does it have a 3GHz
processor? Embedded processors are slow because they only have to do small
fixed simple tasks.
Embedded processors are also in things like routers, disk drives and
lots of other things that can use plenty of processing power.
