I am very interested in trying to find out about more about the implementation
of the 8088, 80286, or 80386 chips, especially the microarchitecture (data
path, ALU, microinstruction format, etc.). I have seen one article that touches
on the subject a little, in IEEE Micro Magazine, Dec 1985 by Khaled A. El-Ayat
and Rakesh K. Agarwal.  I called up Intel's headquarters and asked to talk to
those two people, and was told that they are unknown (although their affiliation
is listed as Intel.  I then asked for the Engineering department/division, and
was told there was none.

I would greatly appreciate it if anyone who has seen any articles anywhere
about the microarchitecture of those chips could contact me by email.  Also,
if there is anyone there who works at Intel and knows someone in the design
groups that produced the chips, or even who has a corporate phone book and
can find the proper company entity to call, that would be great.  Thanks.
