Can anybody out there send me the address of VLSI-Technologies or any other source of information on the ARM chipset (as used in the Archimedes computers by Acorn)? I have heard rumours about 'data-sheets for free' - is this the case?? Thanks. ___________________ ____________________ / | / | / Snail-Mail: | / E-mail: | / Rolf Michelsen | / rmich@lise.unit.no | \ Studpost 130 | \ | "Don't get caught in \ 7034 Trondheim-NTH | \ | the net....." \___________________| \____________________|
