I would argue it is a 2-bit processor that can't stand 1 bit of competition

good
condition - although not sure how long they will last. One suggestion is
to
apply glue to the felt pad before it splits - has anyone

Dave,
well, the Intel bits were just about as american-made as the Motorola (RIP)

processor. And not the worst that Intel ever built.The successors are still
around in the
Hmm, you're Nybbling away at this a Bit aren't you, Tobias?
