I realised after I thought about it a little that just in the sence of a multi-user system, the apple would never handle it.. I just get tired of DOS..i'd like something would basically be a single user unix..though, I'd also like it to be multi-tasking (though..I don't know if I'd like to write the code taht does it.. :) some of the problem is that you can't call a DOS application from within another program and have the calling program "use" the data (yeah, you call a control-d catalog..but it just echo's it to the screen...it doesn't allow you to put it in a file..or have the program sift through it).. I've never used assembly on the Apple..so I don't know what kind of terrors I'm bringing up here.. maybe I'll write motorola and ask for a reference... John (oh, about minix..does anyone know if it's reasonable to put that on an apple II, and if so, where can I find it?) --

Umm, neither the 6502 nor the 65816 are made by them. Only the MC 68xxx series in the Macs. -- Syd Polk | Wherever you go, there you are. jazzman@claris.com | Let the music be your light.
