Hmmm... Whilst installing my new BASEBoard memory cards, I noticed that
my A500 Rev 5 motherboard was labeled "B52 / Rock Lobster"

Anyone know the origin of this?  How about who all those initials below
it stand for??


As an aside:  My baseboard clock REFUSES to hold a date when the
system is powered off.	It will hold it if I just give it the three-
fingered salute, but not from a cold-start.  I tried reseating all the
chips, and also scored all possible copntact points.  Any other suggestion
before I send it back (next day air, of course! :-)  )
