 +1 Informative		 #164075 - Microprocessors respond quickly too
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Erik Malund said:
A microprocessor is not designed for fast reaction to external stimuli (Windows/Linux both process (the result of) interrupts "when they get around to it"

x86 processors will respond to interrupts in the next instruction. It is up to the operating system to determne what, if anything, happens next.

Blame Windows, not the silicon.
