I know how they work in hard ware, but what dos DX really stand for ????? |I don't think these two terms mean anything. |If it does, intel has not made the meanings very well known. |The joke for a while was that sx stood for 'sucks'. |I guess that means that dx stands for 'ducks'. |If there is any meaning in this, it is very cryptic. I've posted this several times before but I find people usually find it humorous: SX = SuX. DX = DeluXe. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Iskandar Taib | The only thing worse than Peach ala Internet: NTAIB@SILVER.UCS.INDIANA.EDU | Frog is Frog ala Peach Bitnet: NTAIB@IUBACS !
