Think of it, Intel selling their PC chips for *more* than PCs! I bet
you'll try to claim that 80386 and 80486 chips weren't PC microprocessors
either.

Very few ended up in embedded applications. Not like the 186 did.

Let's see:

91,700 hits for "80486 embedded"

128,000 hits for "80386 embedded"

71,100 hits for "80286 embedded"

48,000 hits for "80186 embedded"

Looks like all the later Intel microprocessors won out over the 80186 in
terms of embedded applications.

I'd be willing to bet that 99% of those are SBCs ...

Okay, I take that bet. Prove it.

And since when do SBCs not count as embedded?

1,750,000 hits for "SBC embedded"
