>> Sandbag makes chips with sand, it does not write software, therefore it has nothing to do with fixing antique Cobol problems. << Did I say Cobol? Nope, I don't think so. I said embedded systems. Chips in particular. The manufacturers of said chips to be precise. >> To replace EEPROM in a circuit board with flash, it's no easy feat. You have to redesign the circuit board (different interface), and then to take advantage of the "reprogrammability" of the flash, you have to add some kind of communication means to the circuit board, takes lot of board real estate and no easy task either. << So what would you replace the dumb non-y2k compliant chip with - tomorrow? How can you derive the greatest advantage from the fact that you have to replace it? Who maufactures (or will shortly manufacture) what you want to replace it with? >> I think the Y2K sector is in big trouble right now, don't you think so? I am looking to buy IMRS << I think the y2k companies with no articulated post-y2k strategy are in trouble (at least until the panic sets in). IMRS' strategy is well articulated, as far as I can tell. So is TPRO's, of course. >> I am just "released" by the webmistress after serving a little time for opening my big mouth. << Refrain thy foot from their path. --Prov. i. 15. His greatness was no guard to bar heaven's shaft. --Shakespeare Bounced Czech (FBN - Articulations.)
