Here are some more changes on top of the version that was committed.

Add an article, add markup, simplify language, and use 64-bit instead 
of 64-bits in the MIPS section.

("has been changed" -> "has changed", "is being used" -> "is used",
and there are one or two others which I left since I wasn't sure.)

I applied this now, though if there is anything you disagree with
we can always revisit.  Just advise!
