- Hi Timothy,
-
- I'm the proud owner of a RCS Fusion 40 and it has performed flawlessly
- for me. Couldn't be happier! I didn't buy my as soon as they came out
- (about 6 months after) so I didn't experience any of the bugs that I
- assume other people encountered.
- I have called RCS numerous times inquireing about there NEW Fusion 40
- Sixty (that is the official new name). They sent me a fax with the specs
- etc... here is some of the info off of the fax...
-
- Cache size - 8K x 2 (twice the 040)
- MIPS - 61.2 - 68 (50MHz version, 66MHz will obviously be faster)
- MFLOPS - n/a (?????? why?)
- Superscalar - Yes
- Voltage - 3.0 watts (compared to the 040's 5.0 watts!)
-
- So there you go! Sounds like a speedy little sucker! Now if Motorolla
- would just ship the DARN thing!! RCS told me they have the A2000 version
- ready to go and the A4000 version will be ready after they start shipping
- the A2000 version.
-
- Please note, that I aquired this information over a month and a half
- ago. Things may have changed. I think its time to give RCS another call!
-
- Hope this helps.
