Sounds kinda like INTEL small model when you get right down to it. It was because although Memory Management allowed up to 512K, the processor could still only work with 64K at a time. There were worse. I have an LSI 11/03. It has 56K bytes of word addressable memory or the equivalent of 28K worth of address space. Try cramming MINIX into that. :-) bill bill gunshannon 702WFG@SCRVMSYS.BITNET
