VIA C7, a platform for the age of win98/me/2k, free dos, etc, maybe redhat 6.x(the original redhat, not redhat enterprise linux) also.

Well, I didn't even have a chance to write it yet but it's meant as a tongue-in-cheek guide on how to use it to play old retro games. And yeah, you won't use a C7 for anything mission critical since its predecessor the C3 is known to have an undocumented secondary instruction set that is not well protected...and Via's records on securing its chips aren't great.
