[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Thanks to all people responding to my question ...

oolidjr@hubcap.UUCP (Joe Moll) (11/23/88)

Thanks to all for the quick and informative responces.  I am unable to
name particular people because I have lost many of the responces.


The general idea that all responces had was that IBM in their infinite
wisdom, only decodes the lower 10 bits of the 16 bits available.  That
makes for some tricky decoding when new designs are places in theis
limited address space.

Thanks again.  You help is much appreciated.

Joe.
