I don't see how it would work since each set would have to run in the same memory(you think you've got memory contention now! Wait till your processor and _4_ chip sets are accessing the *same* memory!!!) But maybe with some custom magic there is a way to make it work and make it work sooner than a complete new design. How 'bout it, Mr. HG? Whaddaya think? Dana
