AW, COME ON HENRY! Although the the 8080/8088/8086/80186/80286 doesn't have a 
sensuous organization like the 68000/68020, only a twit would say INTEL
botched it considering the 10 to 1 ratio between Intel and Motorola shipped
units. (and I know your not a twit) Having designed with both companies 
products and SUPPORT services, I must admit that INTEL does do a few things 
right.... Even MOTOROLA would admit that.  Now Henry, be nice to those poor
INTEL people who indirectly brought us the PC, PC-AT,.........
