A suggestion: (this is not intended for companies who develope and/or distribute applicationcards :^) What's about getting all the nice things in the various application cards out of them and make it accessible for everyone as libraries (is that possible?) So you only have to get some 'big' RAM cards and get all the stuff from some FTP-server. Wouldn't that be cheaper than buying the applicationcards? I know that this would be in conflict with copyrights on software, but... Comments, solutions, flames?, bad news, and even more expected.

Wouldn't that be cheaper than buying the applicationcards? Uh... Gee Christian, I guess Vienna doesn't have copyright laws. While you're at it, how about if you GIVE me all of your university's research on theoretical chemistry; FREE, of course. What the hell, while I'm at it, I'd also like to be able to infringe on any patents to date, as well as well as future patents, so that I can undercut sales of future products which will come to market as a result of that research. Dang! My flamethrower is out of acetylene! :-) peraino@gmuvax.gmu.edu
