Very true. Although we act as if we invented it. IIRC, the first virtual storage machine was called Atlas, but in 1956 or so? I vaguely remember this from a college course long ago. Does anybody know of a current general purpose OS which does not have virtual storage? I am excluding the embedded market from this, of course. examples: z/VSE, z/TPF, z/OS, z/VM, Linux, *BSD, Windows, QNX, AIX, HP-UX, many other UNIX variants. -- John McKown Senior Systems Programmer HealthMarkets Keeping the Promise of Affordable Coverage Administrative Services Group Information Technology The information contained in this e-mail message may be privileged and/or confidential.
