Hey, that board you mentioned tonymac, sounds like the new cell-architecture boards. They have like 7 cell processors, 6 running as slaves and one as a hypervisor. All multithreaded an fast. Don't quote me, just from memory ;)

@Dragon_Hilord, It's what your know best, that makes life easier. To write anything in asm, would be easier for me, than to write something in say basic. The only thing that is a disadvantage in asm is no libs.

@ solidus117: it is a similar theory, only an order of magnitude more parallel with much simpler individual processors. The theory is that you don't need as powerful of a unit if there are a whole lot of them. Kind of like ants. 8) @ dragon_hilord: hmmmm, ok... I'll use the ++ operator, I'll just write it as... INC! :lol: j/k

hahaha. Good one. INC is one of the few ops burned into my memory at the moment (besides xor, mov, add, sub and a few others :P). @DEX: soooo much agreed. It's all personal prefrence. The thing is, if you can do BOTH, your set for life :D Cheers, DH. PS. The only command i HATE HATE HATE HATE .... HATE in assembly is MUL. That has to be one of the most confusing things ever.

@Dragon_Hilord, and its slow, i try to use shl when i can.

@DEX: Multiply by two eh? Interesting. That gives my a thought; do you have math coprocessor support and/or emulation. This doesn't seem necessary now, but I still got an (unhooked) pc that has had no COP (i have a 486 DX in it and a SX in a box) in it. In my mind, this is essential! Cheers, DH.

To me you have to draw a line some where, or you will end up with some thing that is bad for 98% , just so 2% are OK. So i would say you will need math co processor to run Dex4u and min 8MB ram. This is the standard ver of Dex4u, theres nothing stopping someone making a Dex4u lite, that emulats math co processor and loads file lower down etc. But to me if you have a PC less than the standard spec use dos instead.

@DEX: hahahahaha. Agreed. DOS is a mean-lean-executing-machine. The only time I've ever seen the practicality in COP-Emulation is that one computer when playing with scientific stuff in Linux. Nothing more. Cheers, DH. PS. Please don't turn this into BloatWare (TM).
