Heh, I appreciate the encouragement :) However, good explanatory writing about tech is extremely difficult and time-intensive. If I were working full-time on writing about CPUs (or other tech) and trying to do the kind of stuff I used to do for Ars, I might be able to manage two articles a month... maybe realistically it might be like 1.5 articles a month. And that would be going at it full time.<p>I&#x27;m just not really sure that at this point in my life (I just turned 40), that I want to trade, say, three years of my 40&#x27;s for about sixty or so CPU (or other tech) explainer articles. I dunno... I might... I&#x27;m not saying that I &#x2F;don&#x27;t&#x2F; want to do it. In fact, I think about it sometimes, because there&#x27;s a whole lot to be said for doing something that you&#x27;re really good it and that people appreciate, even if it&#x27;s sort of niche and random like writing about CPUs. So maybe I could be talked into it. But I also think, maybe I&#x27;d rather try and write a zombie novel, or a graphic novel, or something else random. Who knows... First-world problems and all that...
