Anybody know the schedule for the MMU walks on the shuttle flight?
Are any of the networks planning to cover it?

I don't understand...why would anyone want to walk an MMU?  And where
did NASA get one?  Is it better than the Motorola spec or the NS unit?
Do they have anything it's compatible with?  An MMU isn't anygood
without a CPU, and maybe an FPU.  It'd be nice if the FPU were IEEE
specs, too.  NS's apparently isn't quite up to par.  And what's the
page size?  Alot of people would like it if the pagesize were variable,
even if you couldn't do it from software.

What?  But I thought... Oh.  No wonder!

Never mind.
