The industry was already moving away from the big 64 bit SMP machines made Sun, SGI & IBM. In many cases a cluster of 32bit x86 machines made more sense than one expensive big mach…

The Sony RX100 series would be in most top lists. Though personally I'm not sure why they went with a slower lens from the mark 6 onwards. The ZV1 continues with the a similar lens…
