added "Chip Time" but references don't seem to be used very much on these pages, so I include it here, http://www.nytimes.com/2001/11/01/technology/you-clocked-what-for-marathon-runners-it-s-gun-vs-chip.html A discription of Chip time and how it differs from other racing time keeping.

Primary topic for "chips"
[edit]Whilst this dab page seems sensible for the word "chip", surely the primary meaning of the plural "chips" is the food? Yes I accept the US call them french fries (arguably not quite the same anyway), but "chips" are so overwhelming used to refer to the vegetable, as in the quintessential British dish of "fish and chips", that there must be a good case for redirecting "chips" to "french fries" at least until a separate chips article is produced. Views? --Bermicourt (talk) 18:00, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
- In the U.S., the food "chips" would clearly and unambiguously refer to potato chips (a.k.a. crisps). Redirecting chips to french fries would cause a fair amount of confusion. - SummerPhD (talk) 18:18, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
$9 computer
[edit]I'm just a bit surprised that there's no Wikipedia article on CHIP, the $9 computer lately the rage at Kickstarter.

Undo 2014 Merger? / CHiPs
[edit]Considering CHIP generally comes from an acronym, it's rather confusing to go to this page. Also, CHiPs really doesn't belong here as well. They should be in the "See Also" section. Should a new discussion be opened up? –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 18:21, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
