Interesting... Is the M3 data compressed? That's a pretty decent rate if those are uncompressed figures.

But let's put this 12-1 rubbish to rest. You and I both know it is false. 2-1 is about the current state of the art, and it comes at some fairly high CPU cost to decode in realtime...

The thing that confuses me is that the RAM is non-upgradeable. This would seem to point towards them using perhaps a FLASH RAM disk to store this, and might also point out why it is so slow compared to normal RAM access and transfer speeds.

What do you think?
