Re:Rad-hard? Hard Rad! (Score 1)

I know that JPL and other NASA folks have been using PowerPC chips in space apps for a while (Though I don't know if this is because they have a rad-hard version). Note, Intel handed over the Pentium design to Sandia to build a rad-hard version. However, this was way behind schedule last time I checked, and a lot of it was in IHDL (intel's own hardware description language). Don't go slicing my throat over it though..
