 Nobody would make a computer without parity checking ?? (I wish) 
I know one manufactuer in which there top of the line computer dosen't
have parity checking. Also, the machine is not a cheap $100 machine, it
is a XENIX based multiuser machine. Have you people guessed it yet ??

 Well if not, then here is the answer:

		TANDY  (who else)

 Yes, the TANDY-6000 XENIX based multiuser based micro dosen't support
parity checking. In fact I have been told that the runtime core dosen't
support it, even though there is additional sockets on the board for the
chips...

Well since I own of of theese beasts I figured I would put in my two cents..
