People like Novag and Saitek have been talking about RISC and/or 'RISC-style' processors in their marketing material for years and seem incapable of stopping. I suppose they have some notion of "RISC = good", but that's an early-Nineties concept; processors these days are generally a judicious combination of RISC and CISC and the whole thing feels antique, rather like discussing flared trousers ;) Alastair
