Hello, What kind of features were suggested? It will be virtual memory right? (Probably stupid question..) Anyone know what kind of page replacement is intended? I guess also that a much larger memory model compiler would need to be included and have been wondering about the eventual upgrade cost. If Coherent has sold in the 10's of thousands does that cover the cost of writing the thing because a heap of people worked on it. I love Coherent btw, it's pretty stable, eg when I was installing clam the cpu would trap and go into and endless loop but I could still log in on the terminal and kill the process. (Clam is very good now that it has the correct patches...) -Peter Cupit. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Peter Wabbit, s891961@minyos.xx.rmit.oz.au You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true.
