By "somewhat" I meant we'd be way more fortunate without the
legacy I/O devices at all!  But hpa is right, 4 lines of
assembler is way better than (900?) lines of C.

My feeling is that if a CPU needs legacy i/o it should be
built into the chip.  HAH!  ;-)

The BIOS should just list the machine resources, in a
"non-BIOS" way, (oh wait, that's ACPI! :*)

Cheers!
