"Jungle" IC
On Sun, 05 Nov 2006 19:03:02 -0500, Meat Plow
opined: Anyone know why it's called "jungle" ? Because it's swampy mess that's swarming with exotic animals. It's a chip where they've thrown in as many functions as they can, to keep down the chip count. Canon used to use the name 'Octopus chip' for the same sorts of chips, & some of their Octopus chips even had a cartoon of an octopus on the package. -- W . | ,. w , "Some people are alive only because \|/ \|/ it is illegal to kill them."
