Why is comp.arch so quiet these days? What happened to the
good old days of "processor wars"? 68040 and 486 have both
been announced and there is almost nothing about them in
the newsgroup. We have debated the question of which is
better, the 386 or the 68030? Now can someone tell me which
is better in the next round; the 68040 or the 486?
