hi John… i haven't been up here on asoft and saw your 3DS/pent.news all over Internet letters. lot's of people report wierdness in the pentiums in acad r12; but who knows. 3DS is not skitty in any commands on P90, like acad. Maybe IBM can PR against Intel because of the district Court rulings in Texas in favor of Cyrix Corp, "a Richardson Texas, chip maker," that affirmed an earlier opinion "that IBM may manufacture Cyrix chips used in personal computers." "Separately, the federal Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington upheld a Jan. 24, 1994, lower-court ruling that Cyrix and its customers did not infringe on an Intel patent." Appeal is to the Supreme Court and Intel is "reviewing" this, or must pay $5 million to Cyrix. According to Tuesday's Wall St. Journal in a little article back on B6 the same day as the IBM returns the Intel Pentiums story broke on the front pages. bye bye. merry xmas to syndesis.
