I'm currently looking at the DS80C400. That is
one scary chip.
Hardware math accelerator, 10/100Mbps ethernet controller, TCP/IP stack
and multitasking OS primitives in on-chip ROM...most impressive.
This is a microcontroller that can, no shit, boot its firmware via
DHCP and TFTP.
That sounds like a very interesting microcontroller.
