I disagree strongly.  I think that, despite the tone of the original 386

most of the postings on net.arch.

Let's move on.  Stop discussing the tone of the 386 posting and start
discussing real comparison of the new generation of 32bit microprocessors.
Let's see some real comparison of the 68020 with the 386, with the
ATT chip, and with the various other chips we can expect to see hitting
the market in the next year (Hitachi, etc.).
