Operating System Stored Inside x86 CPU
« on: December 13, 2006, 09:52:19 PM »
IBM had announced new non volatile memory that can be integrated into future PowerPC CPUs.

If an x86 CPU vendor buy the license and put non volatile memory inside their CPU, is it possible to store Operating System inside the new CPU?

If this idea possible and AmigaOS is ported to x86, is this CPU with bundled AmigaOS a good solution?
1. Use ordinary x86 boards. The computer can also be used for Linux, Windows XP etc.
2. Prevent piracy, perhaps the OS will check the CPU serial number.

Is this idea possible?
