Error in description

Quote: "So, unlike in the past where you would do A plus B and then have to store the result of the operation in A or B, developers can now store the result in a third location."

That is a description of the x86 instruction IMUL immediate (and others): C=A*B.

Actually, the new instructions are ?=A*B+C, that is 3 operands on the right.

And I'm sure there must already be some multi-media extensions that take three operands, but I only have the 80186 book at hand.

In any case, I am sure that these are new instructions, and it is also interesting that the word 'RISC' can be used with these increasingly longer and more complex instructions, once only supported by CISC processors like the 80186.
