And here is how these scores were determined: We completed three of five benchmarks for an 0.6, a borderline green. We did indeed repackage the 8086 family, under a new product line called iAPX. So that’s a perfect 1.0. Production of the 8MHz part, set for early May, was a fiasco.* Because of problems with the polysilicon, the target had to be pushed to October. That’s a zero. As for the arithmetic coprocessor, the goal was to ship 500 parts by June 15. We wound up shipping 470—which computes to 0.9, another green. Altogether, we averaged 62.5 percent (or a raw score of 0.625) on our KRs for
