Marty, <<One of the reasons that the 586e has been delayed is because Jim and Co. are rewriting the video drivers so that they can run graphic intensive games like DOOM…any program that will run on a 486 based PC will also run on the 586e.>> Yeah, but to what degree? Right now EMPLANT runs Wolfenstein, but I wouldn't show it off to my friends! <<You might consider waiting a couple of weeks before bailing out.>> You may very well be right. In fact, if everyone can wait another couple of weeks, I may very well wait for the 586e and see if it makes the grade. If it does, I've inconvienced a lot of people. If it doesn't, I'll throw the 586e emulation in with the whole package price. Of course, don't forget, the 586e was due out in Oct, Nov, Dec and Jan (from the mouths of UU themselves – not specifically Jim). Who's to say that we'll see the emulation before Spring? We'll just have to see. 🙂 Alan Henry – Digital Plastic F100-PW-220e Inside
