Yah, I knew that (Though I can never remember between AIX and AUX which is IBM's.) There are some packages that are available that I would love to run but don't want to get a Sun, or run NT. Looks like NT is my only real choice right now. > How do you feel about writing processor emulations? I would love to, unfortunately that is way beyond me at this time. I'm working on my coding, but that is some time off still. -Sean ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sean J.
