Amy, It certainly sounds like a microcode emulator kind of beastie. Did not Intel tried get hold of some patents through a Mexican shell Co some time ago that were of this ilk? Now Intel is being lawyered for $8 billion by the people who obtained those rights????
Interesting time for all. Wonder if they(Linus) will show and tell tonight.
