I've not had a chance to install Solaris "7" on my box yet, but I'd wager
that Linux/Netscape on my box is just as fast... 'course, the UW SCSI /
Dual P2-350's might have something to do with it... ;-)
BTW, if you can buy that system for under 1K, do it! Altho RAM has come
down, it's still not nearly as low as it was 6 mo. ago, and 256M still
costs a pretty chunk of change these days.
To bring this (kinda) back on topic, is there a freeware CoCo emulator for
Linux out there? (Actually, even a 6809-only emulator would be cool...)

Recycling is good, right??? Ok, so I'll recycle an old .sig.
If at first you don't succeed, nuclear warhead
