Tenchusatsu, Went there and signed up for a trial subscription. The EE library at U of T may have it? But they might not. They had some intersting stuff on their web site. Apparently Intel has tried to patent a processor that runs x86 and merced code and if granted is broad enough to interdict any processor that responds to two sets of instructions, like the risc/cisc concept I spoke of yesterday. Sounds like some interference needs to be filed as this seems to be not a unique idea, but apparent to anyone in the field who is knowledgeable, especially since it also seems obvious to me who is not in the field. {erhaps they will claim some unique modus cidus felis.
