- What were the key differences between the Intelec 4 and  our Intelec 8?
- What are the possible  accessories  for Intelec 8? We have a dual floppy 
cabinet is all.
 Years I saw  an Intel blue colored standalone paper tape punch and reader(we 
would like one!)
Is there a good site that addresses  all and lots about  intelec systems anyone 
can recommend?
Thanks in advance!

it.
As for the F14 processor. For the purpose used, it was likely a DSP. More 
intended to do matrix multiplication using adds and shifts. This would be 
similar to Intel's early try at a DSP.
The F14 processor was said to control the flight surfaces. Like the Intel 2920 
( not to be confused with the AMD bit slice part) it likely ran tight loops of 
signal processing operations using tables of lookup coefficients.
