:-) I'm not saying you're wrong, just
remembering what may have been Acorn
marketing. I'd be interested to see what the data books say if you find
them.
And o wonder, I realy found some: 4 brochures
Introduction to the NS3200 Architecture (11/84)
The Benefits of Demanded Paged Virtual Memory - Series 32000 (11/84)
The NS 32000 Benchmarks (08/83)
Series 3200(tm) Architectural Support HLL Code Generation Strategies (84)
While he first 3 contain a not on the first page reading:
"The device numbers in this
brochure are not valid due
to the name change from
NS16000 to NS32000",
and the content refers only to NS160xx, the fourth seams to be
already edited, just the title of chapter 4 still reads "NS16000
Support for Structured Data Types" - the chapter itself talks
about NS32000...
Seams like the change happened around 1984.
