     Although Intel might have said it will be out in 1992, as
 has been evidenced by the 486's problems, will the 586 be fully
 debugged in 1992 ? I'm betting that it'll be incorporated into
 some systems in '92, but as has been the case with the 486,
 it (the 586) will not be used by most manufacturers until 1993
 at the earliest. Bugs never make something popular.....
