  AIR (sorry I don't remember the acronym) does. They sent me some
support info, showing that with burst mode you get very little from
external cache. They sell boards with and without, so I can't say
they're trying to convince you to buy what they sell.

  They advertise in the back if _Info World_ and sell very sharp on the phone.
