<Okay Allison, now you caught me with three heretofore unheard of terms:
<Cvax, Nvax and SOC. What the heck are these definitions? My MVII: what ter
<above applies to it?
Microvaxen are all the same like 386, 486, P5, however they mostly differin
technology used to make them.
MVII is the first NMOS version.
Cvax is a CMOS version that was about 2.4-3.0 faster.
SOC is system on chip, more of the glue and larger cache are inside it.
speed on this can run to greater tha 20x MVII.
Nvax is Cvax with internal cache 3-8x MVII
I listed them in order of speed.
