What IS your point? The point is that if you want GOULD's RT-UNIX, you'll have to buy a GOULD Powernode or NP series machine to run it on. GOULD has in the past sold source licenses for all of its flavors of UNIX, so I guess that the source for it RT-UNIX will also be available. If you have a large budget and like hacking the kernal, buy a low-end Powernode with a UTX/32-RT source license, and port it wherever you would like. I worked for GOULD-CSD for several years and from my experience, their implementations have been excellent, support is above average, and pricing is in line with the rest of the industry. -- Rick Schneider ...pyramid!vsi1!rick VICOM SYSTEMS, INC.; 2520 Junction Avenue, San Jose, Ca, 95134, (408) 432-8660 The opinions expressed are not those of my employer or are they?
