Re: Then, does the 64 bit FSB of the x86 processors make them hybrid 32/64 bit processors or even full-blown 64 bit machines?

Mayber the Intel FUD squad just leaked Intel's new official line.

It does indicate they haven't even a rudimentary understanding of microprocessors, but hey, look at the group we're talking about.

Combjelly,

Re: "Or are you claiming that the 8 bit data bus makes the 8088 a hybrid 8/16?"

Since you're "preety solid" in the sciences, tell us whether you think
the 8088 is an 8 bit or 16 bit processor ?? I'm dying to hear this one. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef
