I agree with Mr. Von Rospach.  16 MB is quite a lot of memory.  At Daisy
Systems, we get excellent results with a mere 4 MB on our Intel 80286-based
systems.  We have put 16 MB (15 3/4, actually) on several internal test
stations, to see what happens, and the systems work happily away.  To my know-
ledge, none of our customers has had need for more than 4 MB.  By late 1987, I
expect they will find 16 MB limiting.  But by then, Mr. Von Rospach's company
will have the 32-bit version of the NS32000 family; Motorola will, quite
possibly, be shipping the MC68020 with the real MMU; and Intel will be
shipping the 80386, its "big-boy" version of the 4004.  (A spot of humor
there.)  The 24 bit address bus of the NS32032 is not a problem.  The
data bus, the internal register width, and the ALU width are more important
measures, currently.
