Nagle) Distribution: na Organization: Stanford University Lines: 25 Keywords: mandala In theory, it should be possible to do work like that with "LIVE!". I'm working on it. Some comments on developing with "LIVE!". 1. The present development library works only with Aztec C, not Lattice, due to differences in the register conventions. A-Squared has promised to support Lattice shortly. 2. As usual, an A1000 with two outboard expansions is unreliable. LIVE! does not plug into a Microbotics 2MB memory expansion reliably. Connector position is very touchy. I've been told that the usual solution of taking the Microbotics out of its box works, but haven't tried this myself. 3. New versions of the development library are coming out every few weeks, and A-Squared has tried hard to be helpful. I suspect that by early next year, the development tools may be usable. 4. Except for the connector problem, the hardware seems to be reliable. John Nagle
