True. And lots of interesting bugs; some show-stoppers in early steppings. >If the 32016 had a second generation, some tweaks and faster process it >might have had hope but like 68k and Z8000 it was good idea but late. It had 2 additional generations of general purpose procs (32332 & 32532) and a number of embedded iterations (ns32gc, ns32fx). But, yeah, too late relative to to i8086. KJ
