I have always believed that the writings were adhesive, instead they is varnish. The white cover, I believed painted the original black cover, instead it is plastic white more thinner.

another good article :
http://www.networkworld.com/news/2000/0918genesys.html (English)

Two years ago, I phoned Genesys (Monopoli) to know if the legal cause with Intel was definitely concluded. I have not had answered and I have not recalled.

Great find! A real rarity, if only 150 were produced! Certainly rarer than most of the "rare" chips we see on eBay Smile
