( tooth powder )( dry goods )( tobacco )( soap ).

Although the first commercial sales were for VAX / VMS, from the mid-1980s the main Poplog development work was done on Sun SPARC computers running Solaris, although several different versions were sold, including versions for HP-UX and a 64-bit version of Poplog for DEC Alpha running Digital UNIX.

Although the same size as the Beast Wars coloration of this mold, he was depicted as much larger in the comics, standing eye-to-eye with Depth Charge and Razorclaw, and slightly shorter than Alpha Trion ( who may have been upgraded as a Maximal and therefore smaller than his original form, which stood as tall as Optimus Prime ).

Although it is commonly understood that the Alpha fighters used by the Robotech Expeditionary Force were produced prior to the departure of the Pioneer Mission, the ASC opted to develop its own Veritech mecha which saw heavy use against the forces of the Robotech Masters, including the:

Although WinPad was never released as a consumer product, Alpha builds were released showcasing many interface elements.

Although it was developed before VMS on the PDP-11 platform, it was later ported to VMS on VAX then OpenVMS on Alpha.

Although it has the Bayer designation " beta ", it is actually brighter than Alpha Ceti.

Although many players speak of Alpha and Beta as different sets, officially they are the same set.

However Guy Gardner and other fellow lanterns free him before the execution, resulting in the destruction of the Alpha Lanterns when the Green Lanterns refuse to allow John to be executed ( Although it is revealed to the reader that the Guardians set up these events as part of their plans to destroy the Corps ).

Although Irvine had become isolated from the general membership of the larger sect, which continued to follow his " Alpha Gospel ", many among its leadership continued to maintain contact with him, even making the pilgrimage to Jerusalem to visit with him.

Although this did not seem competitive, much of the 11 hour difference was due to departures and arrivals around midnight for the Pennsylvania service, whereas many shippers did not send and receive shipments during the night and thus could accept a mid-evening departure and a mid-morning arrival, as the Alpha Jet service could provide.

Although complex, the transistor count of CISC decoders do not grow exponentially like the total number of transistors per processor ( the majority typically used for caches ).

Although the 8080 was generally an 8-bit processor, it also had limited abilities to perform 16-bit operations: Any of the three 16-bit register pairs ( BC, DE, HL ) or SP could be loaded with an immediate 16-bit value ( using LXI ), incremented or decremented ( using INX and DCX ), or added to HL ( using DAD ).

# Although RISC was indeed able to scale up in performance quite quickly and cheaply, Intel took advantage of its large market by spending vast amounts of money on processor development.

Although SGI continued to market Itanium-based machines, its more recent machines were based on the Intel Xeon processor.

Although the same is true for any super-scalar processor design, the level of parallelism in a SIMD system is typically much higher.

Although the 8085 is an 8-bit processor, it also has some 16-bit operations.

Although ARCNET could at one time outperform a Ethernet in a busy office on slow processors, ARCNET ultimately gave way to Ethernet as improved processor speeds reduced the impact of collisions on overall throughput, and Ethernet costs dropped.

Although the processor was inferior to its predecessor, the Pentium III, on a clock-for-clock basis, Intel designed the processor to be capable of reaching much higher clock speeds than the Pentium III.

Although software tools are available for testing hardware stability, it is generally impossible for any private individual to thoroughly test the functionality of a processor.

Although many people reported that Sun Microsystems ' UltraSPARC T1 ( known as " Niagara " until its 14 November 2005 release ) and the now defunct processor codenamed " Rock " ( originally announced in 2005, but after many delays cancelled in 2009 ) are implementations of SPARC focused almost entirely on exploiting SMT and CMP techniques, Niagara is not actually using SMT.

Although such medium security may deter a casual hacker, the lack of a processor core in the dongle to authenticate data, perform encryption / decryption, and execute inaccessible binary code makes such a passive dongle inappropriate for all but the lowest-priced software.

Although there is one main memory, there are several caches ( one per processor ), and unless preventative steps are taken, the same memory location may be loaded into two caches, and given two different values.

Although Tremolo and Loveless featured more sampling and sampled guitar, Shields has noted that a Jaguar or Jazzmaster with some strings in an open tuning combined with an effects processor ( such as the Yamaha SPX90 ) can achieve a massive swirling guitar sound with one guitar, whilst sounding like numerous overdubs.

Although seen more often as an educational device, pancake sorting also appears in applications in parallel processor networks, in which it can provide an effective routing algorithm between processors.

Although the small die size and low power-usage made the processor notably inexpensive to manufacture, it never gained much market share.

Although this add-on contained two 32-bit CPU chips and a 3D graphics processor, it failed to attract either developers or consumers as the superior Saturn had already been announced for release the next year.

Although the hardware QSystem ( TM ) professional mixing processors and plug-in producer-side software tools were significant product offerings in the 1990s, most QSound technology is now incorporated in end-user products ( such as video game software, computer sound cards and home entertainment electronics ) by means of analog integrated circuits, digital signal processor ( DSP ) software libraries, host processor software and the like.

Although more capable hardware can use a wider variety of sizes of data, market forces exert pressure to maintain backward compatibility while extending processor capability.

Although the device boasts compatibility with the majority of titles for both the NES and SNES, cartridges with an extra processor ( like the SA-1 chip found on Super Mario RPG ) are not supported.

Although the Archimedes market was relatively small, it had a fast 32-bit RISC processor with a slim accelerated pipeline that encouraged fast graphics operations.

Although a few logic circuits were on the motherboard, primarily for I / O functions, both the processor and the memory resided in separate daughterboards.
