I wonder if a similar architecture would be used again

for computers. If an institution had a T6 connection for

example.

Ken Shirriff did a thread on the i960 a while back.

As the article said, the reason the hardware was replaced

was because it lacked the memory capacity to hold the

internet routing table at the time (will be significantly

more now, not major in modern terms but beyond the

capabilities of older hardware).
