**Spelling errors/mistyped words
Yes, I  know there are  spelling errors,  and things are  mistyped. It
seems no matter  how hard I try  my fingers hit 't'  twice when typing
'compatible' rendering it 'compattible' numerous, (thousands actually)
times.  I  don't have the  time or the will  to check the  spelling of
everything. Basic spell checking has been peformed. Please let me know
if  there is  anything that  would lead  to incorrect  information, or
something  is so  mangled  that  it needs  revising.  But  if you  can
basically  understand  what was  intended,  just  cope with  it.  Just
cope:-)

BTW, "110" port is  an "I/O" port that has been OCRed  badly, as is an
"1/0" port.

    frequencies up to 66MHz
o   Supports Cyrix 6x86 processor

DRAM 
o   Full 64-bit FPM/EDO DRAM controller
    - Supports 2-2-2 EDO pipeline at 66MHz bus speed
    - Supports 5V or 3.3V DRAM with-out buffers
    - Supports up to 512MB
    - Controls up to 6 banks
    - Post write buffer
o   Selectable current drive for DRAM bus 

Cache 
o   L1 Cache supports write-through and write-back modes
o   Power managed L2 Cache
    - 64KB-2MB cache
    - Write-back or write-through modes
    - 2-1-1-1 synchronous cache cycles
    - 3-1-1-1 pipelined synchronous cache cycles
    - Combined tag/dirty SRAM option

ISA/VL/PCI Bus 
o   Integrated PCI bus with operation up to 33MHz; supports up to 
    three masters
o   CLKRUN# support for PCI
o   Distributed DMA support (software-based)
o   100% AT-compatible ISA bus; 3.3V or 5V operation, also supports 
    ISA bus masters
o   VL bus support (slave only)
o   Integrated Local Bus IDE supports four drives, which can be bus 
    masters, modes 4 and 5 supported
