Does anyone know the specific nature of the bugs in the B-3 version of the 80486 chip? The current version is B-6, and C versions are on the way. Do the bugs affect memory management, fpu? Are there specific software packages, or classes of software, or classes of software functionality that should be avoided? I believe some 486 chip sets work with the chip, and some do not? Has anyone tried any hardware workarounds? I would be glad to post a summary of helpful emailed responses. thanks in advance, arlo hasselbring CS dept.
