Message-ID: Date: 13 Oct 89 01:17:14 GMT Sender: daemon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU Lines: 31 What's the scoop on ECP16? The copy in husc6.harvard.edu is a preliminary version that's packed in sq3, but even when 'unq3'ed, it still seems to be packed somehow. Is there a more recent version? Has it gone commercial, or is it only available from the author? On another note- is there a way to load CDA's into memory w/o loading GS/OS? Also, is there by any chance a unix-like shell for the GS? Just to toss some wood on the fire, is there any reason that a person couldn't take the sources for Unix BSD 4.3 and modify/hack/re-write it to work on a GS? Seems to me this would be a _real_ good test of a C compiler... Hardware: if anyone has a Xebec, datamac, or sider drive(s), dead or alive, I'm interested. Anybody have a 40meg NEC 5146H they would swap for a Quantum Q540? How 'bout a Seagate ST225 for a Quantum Q540? Anybody looking for a //e logic board? How 'bout a couple ][+'s? I want some new playtoys.... let's trade! :) --Chan Wilson ============= 'Fiction is art and art is the triumph over chaos...to celebrate a world that lies spread out around us like a bewildering and stupendous dream.' ............cwilson@nisc.sri.com.....cwilson@nic.ddn.mil................... --Chan Wilson "The vision of the future-- here, and now..." -- Sigue Sigue Sputnik cwilson@nisc.sri.com or cwilson@nic.ddn.mil `the center of the Internet Universe'
