	If the DX2/100 were to use the same "chip doubling" technology
found in the DX2/50 and DX2/60, that would first require support for full
50 MHz I/O to the chip - something supported only on the most expensive
PC architectures. Were that not enough, the heat dissipation problems
already seen in the 50 and 66 MHz DX2's do not bode well for units
running at yet higher speeds.

	Apropos, I recall some technology agreement between Intel and
UniSys, one of whose goals was to work with Intel to tackle the problems
of high-density chips and the associated heat dissipation requirements.
