Cracked open my General Magic DataRover 840 to find out what specific MIPS
R3000 variant is in it. However, the only chips that are large enough to be
CPUs are *two* with Bowser logos marked (C)GMI JAPAN GLACIER-01 F840276. The
other chips of notable size are easily identified as RAM, a sound/modem codec
and the inverter for the LCD backlight.

I've seen systems with two CPUs that handle two halves of an LCD (the Tandy
PC-1 and Laser 50 come to mind), but none with a CPU this large. Any General
Magic alums on the list who can explain more about these?
