The MacXL (nee LISA) I/O board has an empty, unsocketed spot labelled "WD2001"
on it.  Now "WD2001" is the name of a Western Digital DES chip; Apple Canada
can tell me that the technical literature refers to the chip as a 2Mhz
"arithmetic processor", and that requests to California for more information
are met with the response "no information available".  Given the current
atmosphere of paranoia rampant throughout the U.S. cryptologic atmosphere
this in itself isn't too surprising.  Does anyone know, if the board >had<
a 2Mhz WD2001 plugged into it, how you'd get at it?
