rudedog,..Re:<<Some early developers are looking at offloading the
decoding of a CHROME object, which would free the CPU from that job, this is like a math or graphics coprocessor>>

This may be an ignorant question, but how come multiprocessors aren't used more besides just as math coprocessors? Is this a bus problem or an integration/synch problem? In process control, (PLCs primarily) we used multiple processors regularly, especially where we had high response, high speed closed loop servo control schemes.
Just curious.

Thanks,

Lee
