The REAL test...
Cyrix Cx6x86 PR200L+, Step 2, Rev 7. BTB, BTB_RISKY, VSPM, ENABLE_HLT...
Whoops. Illegal instruction. I don't think so!
Tested on the following CPUs, all of which support VSPM..
Cx6x86 PR166+, PR166L+, PR200+, PR200L+
Cx6x86MX PR166+, PR200+, PR233+
It was kinda fun circulating it around the office and watching all the
tech support P5's crash. :)
