Or, as I wrote on Jul 28th in this very ng:

"SIMH can be built for ARM Linux, who wants a VAX in their pocket for
£30 plus the hobbyist licence and a few sundries ? Or a VMScluster in
their pocket for £60? Of course if you had two Android smartphones you
could already VMScluster them courtesy of SIMH...

Marvel-ous. Oh hang on, Marvel was Alpha not VAX. Whatever.

64bit ARM on the way before too long, not sure where that will lead.

Also not sure where Microsoft's (re-)entry into the world of ARM, with
Windows RT or whatever it's called this week, will lead Microsoft and
their "business partners" such as HP.

Interesting times.
