I don't claim that correlation implies causation - we know fairly
exactly how the rsing temperature of the oceans drives CO2 out of
solution in the oceans, raising its concentration in the atmosphere,
where it furhter raises the temperature of the earth by increasing the
greenhouse effect. We don't have to foll around with implications,

I don't know about military stuff but certainly they did a lot of RF &
Millimetre parts. They acquired a number of companies in the 70's &
80's Including "Tandberg". One of the later acquisitions was CPC and
an American components company. Their certainly a global company now.

I don't remember that particular part, but I do remember an event,
around 1980, with NCR.
Their cash registers used NVRAM to back-up transactions in case of
power-failure or main computer system drop-out.
They were having issues with incoming inspection testing of NVRAM

Is the battery is rechargeable or lithium type?
Some of the 8K RAM chips at the time had two chip selects.
What is the part number of the chip used there ??

Of course there is. I delivered over 1800 electronic submetering units
for the Battery Park City apartment complex, and, trust me, we used
CTs. Lots of electronic meters use CTs. You should get out more.

I am looking for some historical information regarding this component.
The DS1210 has been around for some time (around '90, I think) and was
first made by Dallas Semi before being acquired by Maxim Semi.
Tektronix designed one of these parts (around '90 or so) in one of their
spectrum analyzers to back up some SRAM parts. I have posted

Re: OT: What is this Intel Parallel Studio?

Intel multiple cores and before that hyperthreading have been around for
a while now as have the operating systems to cater for them. Plenty of
consumer software is not multithreading, but a lot of seriously compute
bound stuff for image or signal processing is fully multithreaded and
will use all CPUs if you allow it too. Some amateur chess engines use

Correct me if you know different, but AIUI, the Brits (Poms?) got rid of
double jeopardy a while back, shortly after they effectively got rid of
the right to silence.
They've never had the right not to self-incriminate, either.
"Cradle of democracy"? I think not.
