Now where are you getting this info from? Where's the benchmarks?  A 486
can execute most of its instructions in around 1 cpu cycle.  With a
32-bit bus, and quite sizeable instruction/data cache and real 32-bit
integer math operations, and lots of internal registers, a 20 Mhz 65816
would not even approach what the 486 can crunch.

: and as far as Video: Second Sight and TurboRez.

Sprouting names will not solve inherent problems.
