How about the original, 65?02 based processors? ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I remember a while back, there was a discussion about the Achimee chipset which has a "superset" instructions of original 6502. Maybe this one helps? BTW, the chip set consistes graphic processor I believe, and gives some thing like 5 MIPS -10 MIPS... I don't remember very well. Anyone knows anything about this chipset? These are now made by VLSI. cyliao@wam.umd.edu o NeXT : I put main frame power on two chips. @epsl.umd.edu o people: We put main flame power on two guys. @bagend.eng.umd.edu o :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: xxxxx@xxxxx.xxx.xxx (reserved) o RC + Apple // + Classic Music + NeXT = cyliao
