It's sort of random. My intent is to focus on the 8086, but someone asked about the 386 so I looked at that a bit. Then I saw the Navajo Pentium rug in a museum so I figured I should look at a real Pentium to compare. And then I wondered if I could find the FDIV bug. So one thing leads to another. I don't think I'll be able to go much beyond the Pentium with an optical microscope, though.
