sets new records for doublethink by saying the following:

      "Although classified as a CISC processor, the Pentium processor
      incorporates all of the characteristics of RISC-style design except
      for the simple instruction set. Internally, the Pentium processor is
      actually a RISC processor core that supports the x86 instruction set."
