This shows some of the limited scope of the vaunted advances in
computer technology. One can't do number powers easily. The
Micom 2000 using its subscript and superscript could print them
back in 1975.
I can't remember how they displayed them onscreen but they must
have had some method of doing so.

I'm looking for the documentation for the olde TI analog
sound chip; this dates back to the late 70's early 80's if
my memory serves me correctly. I don't even remember the
part number. AFAIK, it had some kind of "I2L" (I squared
el) technology or somesuch, and it was mostly analog, with
some digital control (but nothing like a DSP or midi).
Anyone recall this chip? Anyone have the datasheet for
it online or willing to scan it in?
Background: I remember playing with it a *long* time ago,
and wanted to model it in software :-)
Cheers, and thanks in advance,
