More x86 developments

Further details have emerged about ST's new System on a chip. It will run at 133Mhz with an 8Kb unified cache, a 5 stage single pipeline which can work in parallel with the floating point unit. It also includes a graphics controller able to display on TFT flat-panel displays, a PCMCIA card interface, local system bus, a PS/2 mouse controller, two serial ports, and a universal parallel port: basic Super I/O functionality. This makes it similar to the original Cyrix MediaGX chips, but without the legacy compatibility or sound. Interestingly it is targeted at the embedded market -- not the PC market.
