The MC680xx instruction set is far better than this INTEL bullshit! I guess I didn't realize how easy 16 general purpose registers are to use. I cannot beleive that INTEL chips made it as far as they have! Give me a break- does anyone at INTEL understand micro-processor design or has IBM stuck it to us once again? Well, I sure hope someone out there can give me a reason why INTEL is even in business. DISCLAIMER- I sure do think it's true; but, I could be wrong! -- Jeff (Spectra Software) Harrell hpubvwa!weycord!jeffh (206) 927-9268
