Hello from Gregg C Levine Actually that was my reaction. The demonstration packet that they sent me, was the thing that did it. The terms, "kludge", and "clumsy", and a few others that were not polite, crossed my mined, at the time. And you are right about what Intel thought it was. They made up a chip for the 8086 hardware grouping that included a firmware kernel of the product. Funny, they also did the same for a different OS for the 8086. Both part numbers are long since retired, or even discontinued. ------------------- Gregg C Levine [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------ "The Force will be with you...Always."
