Except for these lovely intel parts, the 82802? series. I am using one now that is low pin count, but 1 Mbyte. how does intel do it? they use address/address multiplexing, which in the limit by design will allow parts of up to 256 MBYTES (or 28 bits of address if my math is wrong :-0)
Thus we will in the small low pin count package be able to fit linux kernels once again. Lots of them! Very nice.
Linux kernels, EFI and all types of bloatware :-) if this silliness wins out. The firmware hubs with LPC interfaces will be the only way to go.
