When last I looked at the Acorn machine its big problem was that 4Mb was the maximum the memory controller could handle. This makes X just barely usable (and that's being generous). Otherwise the machine would be excellent value. I did hear that it might be possible to add a second memory controller. Can someone from Acorn tell us what the current position is? 4Mb is just not enough! -- Richard -- Richard Tobin, JANET: R.Tobin@uk.ac.ed AI Applications Institute, ARPA: R.Tobin%uk.ac.ed@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk Edinburgh University.
