What does "PC" mean? #523

Open keichwa opened 5 years ago

keichwa commented 5 years ago

You say (if you click aarch64):

Ports of openSUSE Leap to architectures other than the PC [...]

which sounds strange. PC is not an architecture... This bug is about https://software.opensuse.org/distributions/leap --your Report Bug link is rather limited and does not seem to back-reference the web page.

wikipedia says:

For the specific architecture often meant by "PC" in industry jargon, see IBM PC compatible.

So 'PC' is an architecture.
