Bill, The one thing I like about that site is that it is always being updated with new information as it is available.. the other thing I like to look at is how many of the "better" chips often lost due to silly reasons. We would all be MUCH better off if today's standard microprocessor was based on the i432 or the 68000 (decendants ofcourse).. Regards, Steve PS, Perhaps one of the more interesting processors in there from this thread's perspective would be the 29K.. I still don't know for the life of me why AMD killed that.. they could have made a ton selling volumes of those things when the K5 fiasco hit..
