Wow!
I have a few thousand more questions.
I am an expert french toast chef.
You made a couple prodigious leaps from
God to the Greeks and from mosfet to CPU,
But it was very interesting and I would
seriously like to ask some bus questions
when I have more time.
But for now:
> DLink, et al, are putting a 802.11b wireless card with antenna on
> Compact Flash.
Sounds interesting. Do you have a link?
http://www.dlink.com/products/DigitalHome/Mobile/dcf650w/
Now, this device is obviously a 50 pin compact flash.
I am filled with curiosity about this and can't seem to glean anything from
the websites.
The SanDisk compact flash obviously has IDE logic built in.
I wonder is that a standard for compact flash devices?
If so, why would that be?
Why would a wireless card be accessed thru an IDE driver?
I followed your AP link and hit a deadend on the ftp download.
I "gleaned" from your essay that the PC Card Bus Bridge and
the EIDE Host Controller are very similar in function.
The reason I am asking these questions is that we build in house a
very compact thin client with an extra compact flash adapter on
IDE and I'd love to use this little box as a diskless router with an
802.11 lan.
Anyway, thanx. And I'll come back later with more bus questions if you don't
mind.
( I wonder if the amber monitor(which I miss) was a coincidence
or subliminal homage )
