Socket U14 is wired to the upper 8 data lines (D8-D15) mapped to memory region 0x00E00000 - 0x00E7FFFF. This indicates socket U14 held a cryptographic S-box lookup table for decrypting the Stardust keystream. Did Marcus take the decryption EPROM with him when he left the lab? -- Karen Girard -- RWTH Aachen Informatik "5 sigma is a discovery. 7 is a question."
