Atari didn't base this construction on this and therefor your flame on Atari seems out of place. You can buy a PC instead of flaming Atari for making machines adressing more than 1 meg of memory. Not sure what your comment was indicating, really ? Per -- --- Per Andersson Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden perand@admin.kth.se, @nada.kth.se
