It is the marketing that scares me. Rockwell just makes the chips, so they
may have a mindset that says don't 'sell' K56flex to the public. I don't
care how superior the technology is or who is behind it, if no one sells the
K56flex mindset to the public, X2 will win. Hopefully the PM3 will support
BOTH pretty soon. ...now if I could just get this darn VHS tape into my
beta VCR...
