Hi Jeff: interesting reply. I remember when TI and MOT did exactly the opposite. TI had the 9900 processor series that was much better than anything on the market, and essentially blew it off. MOT had the 6800/68000 series, that became moderately successful. The most crippled processor of the time, the Intel, won the day. Now the TI processors thrive, MOT is in the dumper, and Intel is king of the heap. A real riot to watch history as it happens, huh? Think also of the lovely alpha chip, and the downfall of mighty DEC. sigh. Don
