One of the vocal opponents of RISC (on whatever grounds) is/was Doug
Jensen, of CMU.  I have just heard that he is joining a startup
called "Kendell Square Research", who are building new hardware
and software for atomic laser blasters, or real-time control,
or some such.  Now an interesting thing to know would be what
the hardware is to look like.  Anyone know?
