**82485       Turbo Cache (and 485Turbocache)                      c90

****485Turbocache module

This is  an 82485 mounted on  a PCB with  either 64 or 128K  cache. It
plugs into a  motherboard that has a special socket  to accept it. The
Hauppauge 4860, Intel 403E, Intel  LP486 and some CPU complexes of the
Intel xPress  Platform are  example motherboards. AFAIK  this standard
was introduced with the 403E.

According  to:  http://www.elhvb.com/mboards/intel/files/help/403E.HLP
There were some  serious issues with the implementation  and design of
this module. See the quoted text below.
