[f-nsp] #LifeBeyond750k [was: Where have all the MLX/XMR users gone to?]

[Jörg Kost]

The MPC8544 (CER/CES) is actually a successful processor,  but maybe the 
1 GHz version had not been available during R&D, so they went for the 
800 MHz. \_(ツ)_/¯

The MLX uses the MPC7448 with more beats:

SLX goes all in on Intel Broadwell, so you can run the OS very easily 
inside a KVM for toying around.

Happy weekend
