About the same time I was running database applications on a 6MHz Z80 box with 256K of bank switched memory. I had the CP/M port of MDBS-III running in one TPA with a tiny application that just pulled parameters from the shared space and put results back up there while the real application ran in another TPA. It outperformed the MS-DOS version running on a PC by quite a bit (we benchmarked it when they tried to sell us on switching to PCs - we weren't interested in single user systems and neither were our customers). -- Steve O'Hara-Smith | Directable Mirror Arrays C:\>WIN | A better way to focus the sun The computer obeys and wins. | licences available see You lose and Bill collects. | http://www.sohara.org/
