I have used both sparc and sparc64 on my Sun workstations, IBM's S390 via the university mainframes, I used to develope exclusively on IBM/Motorola ppc and ppc64 for Linux and Mac, I used the arm systems on my embedded devices and phones, and of course the nomal x86 variant family.

I have NOT used the little endian version of ppc64 (ppc64le), aarch64, and armhfp. I think intel's ia64 was the shortest lived and you needed a special compiler to try and work with it, which was a real pain in the ass as the toolchain constantly was buggy.

Is that close enough for a prize!!??
