Re: all you needed to get Linux ported to a new machine was a programmer... Hi Carl, Throw in a couple of pizzas and it gets as low as 10 days! :-) Dan PS - seriously, some of the intellabees don't get the difference between extending the size and number of registers, and changing architecture paradigms. The latter is much more difficult to program for and takes an order of magnitude longer. The new paradigm might bring with it some significant benefits - but it isn't going to be easy to develop software for, and, so far, no such benefits have been shown.
