The mainframe was a dec but 32-bit VAX/VMS on there with a bunch of 9       track tape drives. I heard it took roughly 24 hours to boot the damn thing       up. I never actually witnessed a bootup but the source of that information       was reliable so I went along with it.              I got offered a 64-bit alpha - free but I had to pay the shipping - after they       got sold to compaq. If I am not mistaken Tru64 was the OS of choice at that       time. I think x86_64 is the only architecture that can run 32-bit libs/apps.               BP> only amiga needs it              Highly unlikely to ever see the light of day here. I don't do emulators.        What for?              Life is good,       Maurice              ... ðy mara wisdom on londe wære ðy we ma geðeoda cuðon.        There would be more wisdom in the land, the more languages we knew.       --- GNU bash, version 5.1.8(1)-release (x86_64-moosile-linux-gnu)        * Origin: Little Mikey's EuroPoint @ (2:280/464.113)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 14/0 15/0 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 114/709 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/131 124/5016 129/305 153/757 7715 154/10 203/0 221/0       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/424 426 428 452 550 616 664 700 240/77       SEEN-BY: 240/420 5138 5411 5824 5832 5853 249/206 317 400 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 282/1038 292/854 8125 301/1 310/31 317/3 320/219       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200 396/45 423/120 633/280 712/848 770/1 2432/390       SEEN-BY: 2452/250 2454/119 5020/545       PATH: 280/464 240/5832 229/426           |
