we're talking about different bits. My fault, I was not paying
attention, sorry.

I lost track and forget we weren't talking reference bits ...

"Ozalp Babaoglu and William Joy. Converting a Swap-Based System to do
Paging in an Architecture Lacking Page-Reference Bits. In Proceedings of
the 8th ACM Symposium on Operating Systems Principles, pages 78--86,

Hmm, a buddy of mine worked on the 780. Plus we bought one or two on
product intro, so I was kind of there for it. So I asked all those neurons
back in the limbic system that were alive back then and they're certain
the 750 was later. But sometimes they like to mess with my head.

The 750 was a truly awful piece of gear.
