$1.00wheat, Intel has a delema. Intel can't fathom the concept of a "cheap chip". The Intel engineers kepp telling Grove they need to build a cheap chip. Since there is no translation for cheap chip in Hungurian. In Hungurian it comes out Cowshit. He responds back, I copy that! I told you we can't build that. So goes the pace of progress at Intel.

Buckwheat - re: can.ibm.com, I don't think Intel could sell any PCjr's unless they also purchased rights to the IBM marketing campaign for it. <gggggggg>IBM will demand the DEC patents and Alpha fab for that valuable asset. Wasn't there a clown in a top hat, or something like that?
