No problems with the most recent snapshot (had them for > almost a month now). Incomplete data point, I need all the numbers from the chip, it could very well be specific to one mask revision set (and the stepping won't tell you *exactly* what mask set was used, you need the ``Spec'' number off the part (normally 2 letters and 3 digits). Then Intel still needs me to provide the other numbers, so without a complete set of numbers it is not a data point for me :-(. -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Custom computers for FreeBSD
