Robert,
[5x speed seems reasonable for a 14-MHz '020. An 020 is to a vanilla 000
as a 386 is to a 386; 5x seems in the ballpark.]
Yes, I agree with you. But you said that the 020 would be running
at 7Mhz, even though it it rated at 14Mhz. It was at that point that I
disagreed with you. It is pointless to run a chip below its rated speed.
Also, it would not run 5x faster at the 7Mhz speed.
BTW, do you mean `as a 286 is to a 386'?
Paul
