Paul, RE: "Sounds like it didn't take Intel quite as long as they thought it would to not put in those 4 extra
memory chips and controller!"

4 extra memory chips and controller! I didn't realize Intel would be "pealing" that many chips off the PII design to make the Covington. Should end up with a significant cost savings, not in just the chips' cost but also in assembly and test. Thanks for the info!

Paul- "not put those 4 extra memory chips..."

Do you think on the Covington they disabled the components on the chip and will later offer a companion "turn-on chip" like they did with their, I think, 386, or maybe it was 486?

Thank you.

Jon :)
