I didn't see this one before:



Edgar (www.edgar-elsen.de) has it, but there is no picture on his site.

I just had to clean my pants.

That is a VERY nice chip

REVEAL was a PC upgrade kit company.

They rebranded others stuff and sold them in kit form.

I hadn't seen a FPU though.

Mostly just multimedia kits (CD-ROM/sound card)

Today I made a scan on 387 and 487 FPU
some fpu mentioned on my lists are missing because they are still on mainboards.

I have some cyrix chips, they look just like the pentium ES chip I posted earlier. ( Gold Heatspreader) Unfortunetely I only have one to sell/trade because I don't have doubles of any other. The picture below is a different speed and voltage but I will get a picture of mine for you if you're interested.

That SZ 83D87 is awesome! Do you know anything about this part?

Reveal by Cyrix 387SX is great too.

I am sorry, I have no information about that chip.
I am glad to hear from John concerning Reveal as company.

Thanks John Laughing

no info on SZ.

However, by reviewing court documents I have found some more on REVEAL.

REVEAL was in bankrupcty in 1996. and was litterally stealing products from other companies to sell (namely Silitek/Lite-On). They recieved $101,380 worth of keyboards that were suppose to go to Lite-On and sold them (with out paying for them). Made for an interesting court case with the shipping company et al.


REVEAL continued to operate under bankrupcy until at least 2000, when they were dissolved.

It seems that their website was www.reveal.com, it went down in 1996 (what a coincidence Smile). www.archive.org doesn't have a copy of their site as it was before bankruptcy, it only has one page that the company put on their website after bankruptcy.
