Interesting, a different take to my objectives. What I want is to be able to continue to do large scale graphics work on packages that I know, particularly ArtWorks and OvationPro. Because of the large scale, big bytes of memory are involved and RISC OS 4 rapidly runs out of steam. I had invested in VRPC as I hope to reduce the number of machines floating around here. But the 26 Mbyte limit continues to rear it ugly head and the Iyonix has to be switched on more and more. The iyonix won't last for ever so I need a substitute; apart from the new hardware (beagleboard, Raspberry Pi) the answer is RPCemu running RISC OS 5. I there a possibility that we will get a reliable networking RPCemu that will also run RISC OS 5? (If so I can abandon both VRPC and the Iyonix.) I should add that Mac is the preferred host for RPCemu. -- Tim Powys-Lybbe [email protected] for a miscellany of bygones: http://powys.org/ _______________________________________________ Rpcemu mailing list [email protected] http://www.riscos.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rpcemu
