No, the two pieces of ASCII art that follow are not mine, I found
them online in various places, and I thought I'd share them with
everyone. If you've seen an example of good ASCII art (clean too!)
send it to me at <aeo.mag@genie.geis.com>.

I first noticed this on a post I saw from Usenet from Lea Anthony
<lea@uk.ac.bham.cs>. I EMailed Lea about it, only to find out that
Lea got it from a file posted by Robert Jung <r.jung@ >. Deadline
time prevents me from carrying the search any further now, but as
soon as I can trace this to the source, I'll do a follow up. In the
meantime, I'm sure the artist won't mind Jaguar enthusiasts including
this everywhere!

This originated as a vector graphic I obtained from Atari Corp. and
distributed with the First Jaguar Special Edition of AEO in
September. Steve Johnson from GEnie <steve-j@genie.geis.com> spent
some time making it into ASCII art, and posted it on GEnie. I thought
Steve did an excellent job.
(NOTE: Each line in the bus connections counts as 8 bits - '|'
equals 8 bits and '=' equals 16 bits!)
