    Your right, UNIX DOES need an MMU.  I'll call Microsoft and H-P immediately
    and tell them to stop selling Xenix and HPUX because they can't possibly 
    work.  Boy are they going to be pissed.  Oh well, they should have asked
    if they needed an MMU before they went ahead and ported UNIX to hardware
    that doesn't contain an MMU.
