As of what date was the Radius RSS (Radmbl, HVN-9173) made Pentium compatible? The compatibility matrix shows:
RSS Pentium Compatibility Matrix wrote:M100/M200 HVN-9173J Yes
There is no date listed. The last date listed is for an RSS package above it, and it says May '99 (I think). Is that what I should go by?

Although no longer available from Motorola, the actual ordering part# was changed to RVN4135A, and it shows a date of 12/13/95 in the RSS spreadsheet listing on MOL. Version was 8.00.00 according to MOL.

Is the "original" part # (HVN-9173) the same as the newer (RVN-4135)? In other words, was anything changed but the part number? I have a copy of HVN-9173, with a build date of May 5 of 93 that is revision r08.00.00. Thanks for the info!
