|	Does this mean that the delay in shipping Amix was caused by a bug in
|the 2620 MMU?  Or just that an O'30 doesn't cost much, compared to an unix 
|license?

	The 3 biggest problems in shipping Amix are

		1. Support
		1. Support
		1. Support

	There needs to be a "CUTS" like CATS; there is
	no dealer support; and no formal C= marketing
	strategy as far as can be seen.

	If Amix were released today, who would answer
	the questions & sort out the problems for both
	developers & end-users? How will C= look after
	marketing the system?

	The hardware & software are only a part of the
	picture...

Cheers,
