Sorry about the long delay between casts guys, life happened and I have been a bit preoccupied. But we have a great episode for y’all today.
I met Tom at WISPAPalooza 2022 and we thought it would be fun to chat with Paul Mannion who rocks Intel’s Next Generation Broadband Architecture and we are talking about what can be done with X86 these days.
