<grin>

So, the history of the optical processing chip could go something
like:

The Monochrome PentiumXXIII
The CGA Pentium
The VGA Pentium
The SVGA Pentium
The Pentium16MC
The Pentium32MC

And, of course, each new processor would allow you to use the new
Microsoft OS:

Virtual Windows MC23
Virtual Windows CGA
Virtual Windows VGA
and so on...

Just a thought :)
