Msg 45698 is 08 line(s) on 06/01/92 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to ANDY SHAPIRO re: MEMORY INTERLEAVE Memory interleave means having at least 2 SIMMS, (or circuitry to address different banks of chips) in such a way, that a given "bank" is accessed every OTHER memory cycle. In other words, you can access a byte from the "left" bank, and while it is "recovering" to allow another access, you access a byte from the "right" bank. Oh, instead of "byte" above, I should be saying "chunk" - typically 32 bits. It is an alternative to cache, to allow effectively 0-wait-state access. Msg 45699 is 05 line(s) on 06/01/92 from WARD CHRISTENSEN to GERRY SWANSON re: R/MANDELBROT Gee, do you have a VGA? You ought to get Fractint. It is an incredibly fast fractal program, available on most of the boards. Actually it will run on a CGA even (I've used it on an XT-compatible laptop, years ago) and the features are just outstanding. The speed makes it practical to do a lot with it. Msg 45700 is 03 line(s) on 06/03/92 from GERRY SWANSON to WARD CHRISTENSEN re: R/MANDELBROT I don't have VGA, my computer isn't very good and Fractint pobably wouldn't work. I am getting a new computer though with VGA, but now I pretty much want to do it myself. Thanks. dup. chars. >Function:?
