Jan Gray asks:

   With the TI agreement, National Semi has renamed the 16000 line "Series 32000".
   Will this have any effect on current chip numbers? (i.e. 16082 -> 32082?)

Yes.  16032->32016, 08032->32008, 16081->32081, 16082->32082, 16201->32201,
16202->32202, and the very new DMA chip 16203->32203.

   Does anyone have any information on the 32132, and its successors?
   Does anyone know when NS expects to be sampling them?

When I talked to my local National man last, he discussed several 32032
updates (I didn't ask about the 16032/32016, sorry) due within a year or
so, and mentioned "86-87" as the timescale for a major new cpu, probably
the 32132 although he didn't mention the number.  Said new cpu might have
on-chip MMU and an on-chip cache; he didn't mention anything else.

(Oh, before I get 10**10 letters asking "what 32032 updates?", these
were basically just speed improvements.)
