Have have NOT reduced it to the level of name calling. He is still on friendly enough terms to invite me to NSC to look at the demo. I in turn are on friendly enough terms to be willing to go. (Roger, I'll send you Email about the date) Heck, I even sent Max and Co. a batch of Rev A chocolate chip 532 cookies the other day! (sorry, the specs belong in rec.cooks, not here!) :-) To folks in general: No, these posting were not intended to tear down NSC or its chip set. I said it before, and I will say it again: ***THE 32000 IS A GOOD CHIP SET*** I do have a number questions and doubts about some of the claims. Perhaps you think support means blind praise of everything? I don't. chongo <> /\oo/\ -- [views above shouldn't be viewed as Amdahl views, or as views from Amdahl, or as Amdahl views views, or as views by Mr. Amdahl, or as views from his house]
