[edit] "somewhat controversial"

Why was it controversial? Some explanation would be handy! 86.136.251.18 03:35, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

I concur. Being able to address devices directly as System RAM sounds extremely useful, not controversial. This should be explained. ---- Theaveng (talk) 11:36, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

I'll grab the quotes when I get chance, it was a usenet discussion with Dave Haynie. Essentially there was no way for a device to legitimately "hide" memory from being addressable and still get a decent transfer rate to it; It could not be DMAd. Wayne Hardman (talk) 16:19, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
