first comment

Link from Computer is missing. Should IMHO also be part of a Electrical Engineering Workgroup. Except that none exists. --Markus Baumeister 15:22, 9 March 2007 (CST)

moved stuff into here from Computer

I moved a lot of stuff into here. It's a mess right now, and some of it may belong instead in history of computing. But it fits here, for the moment, better than in Computers, which is intended just to be an overview.Pat Palmer 16:10, 23 April 2007 (CDT)

Update to checklist

It seems the article is no longer underlinked, updating the article checklist, I also think this is more than a stub.

memory management unit needs to be included here somewhere, somehow

virtual memory, and the MMU (memory management unit) or other hunk of hardware the helps translate between virtual and physical addresses, needs to be part of the article, or else, this article needs to point off to (sub)articles about it. This article seems to be about physical memory only. Pat Palmer 14:07, 14 May 2007 (CDT)
