Speaking of the 80x86 machines, I read a report of a talk by one of
Intel's engineers wherein "plans" for the 80786 were discussed.

According to this report, it will be a 1 inch cube with 4 parallel
cpu's, 2 floating point vector processors (for more parallelism)
and 2 MB of cache memory.  It's due in 1999.

I'm not buying any more Amigas.  I'm gonna wait for this baby.  Meanwhile,
I think my HP calculator will be plenty. 8-)
