    Sparky, I'm a grad of one of the best Software Engineering programs in the country. I could, given time, build you a CPU, write an assembly interpreter for it, write a compiler on top of that and use the remainder to program. Does that make me a software engineer? Nope, it's just background information to keep into consideration when I do what a software engineer actually does, Engineer Software.

    I highly doubt that you could do all of that by yourself given the complexity of an 8086 processor for instance, and the engineering that went into that. You cant just throw a bunch of transistors together. There are RF issues, heat issues, timing issues and so on.

      I said I could, I didn't say it'd be any good. I understand the principles involved, I've done every stage at one point or another, all part of learning it in the first place. Can you say the same? Or have you dabbled in Assembly and think you know what you're doing? When you've dealt with byte codes on a deliberately obfuscated CPU, formating them in a basic text editor and using that to execute commands and create an interpretor, get back to me.

          I don't think you could design a processor, maybe a very simple 1950s style processor on paper, but you could never work out the physical aspects of it.

            Can you? if so, why aren't you working for Intel? or IBM? or Motorola??

              Why would one try to replicate an Intel processor? How about building a very simple CPU from TTL parts? Such as Magic-1[^]. Built by a compiler writer who was ignorant as to how CPU hardware worked. Not having taken any electronics classes in college, he was only vaguely aware of what transistors, resistors and capacitors were. He read 'Understanding Digital Computers', a series of articles by Forrest Mims and 'Digital Computer Electronics' by Albert Paul Malvino. Frankly, your ignorance and lack of imagination never ceases to amaze me.

                Pfft, you're thinking too industrial, you can make a working CPU from basic logic components eventually. Eventually being the key word. Nothing says it'd be fast, nothing says it'd be good. But I could do it, could you? Would you even know where to begin?

                  I bet I could build a better processor than you could.

                    I bet you make less than I do. I also bet I'd be wasting my time trading insults with you beyond this point.

                          No, you respond to arguments you can't win with abuse and like to think of yourself as somehow the victim when you launch into personal and racial attacks. Oh and you lie a lot.

                          If I have accidentally said something witty, smart, or correct, it is purely by mistake and I apologize for it.
