Some day Shawn is going to realize that Z3 uses a multiplexed addressing (it's a 24 + 16 bit bus used to transfer 32 + 32 bit address/data information), and that this means PCI (with 32 bit multiplexed between address and data) is actually not less efficient.

Hopefully he'll fit his whole head in front of the shotgun.


HAHA, So I guess I'm not the only one who tried to convince him of these facts. He was totally convinced "bus arch" is so poor, Amiga is farking fantastic, he wouldn't even explain what he meant by "bus arch" after I went to _great_ lengths explaining what a bus is, all CPUs have them, it's just a bunch of wires for chrissake... must have been about 6 or 7 emails before I gave up. He's got mates working on Z5, you know, and he's got some qualification from some Computing faculty somewhere, and my MEE degree is obviously worthless if I can't see how bad "Bus Arch" is...

Silly as a wheel.
