**Quote style:
To avoid  thousands of quote marks  and colliding with quote  marks in
the  text, I  have used  a modified  quotation style.   Anything in  a
section  titled "Info:"  or "Features:"  is a  quote from  a datasheet
unless otherwised stated in that  section.  In these sections anything
inside  [] is  an  annotation and  not part  of  the datasheet  unless
otherwise stated in that section.

Under any other section, the text is my own unless indicated with "".

Also  this document  does not  contain the  entire datasheet  for each
chip, usually only the first few pages are included to give an outline
of it. Some datasheets are 100s of pages other are only 1.

**A note on VESA support of 486 chipsets.
Many chipsets state  that they support VESA local  bus.  In some cases
these actually  implement VLB somewhat  like PCI, where it  is entirly
decoupled from the CPU bus. Chipsets  that do not state they work with
VLB,  may  be found  on  motherboards  that  contain VLB  slots.   VLB
is  *basically*  The 486  CPU  pinout in  a  slot  form. Unless  these
m/boards contain  some additional  chips, there VLB  implementation is
directly coupled to the CPU.
