This is a preposterous suggestion!! Rave, rant, froth, foam... :-):-):-) Believe it or not, there actually are machines I don't have complaints about. A few. The Berkeley RISC design is one; I admire it a lot. I was groping towards something similar myself six or seven years ago (as were others), but I never did solve some problems that the Berkeley folks have handled very nicely. I wish it was commercially available, with the necessary support goodies. -- Henry Spencer @ U of Toronto Zoology {allegra,ihnp4,linus,decvax}!utzoo!henry
