Hi All, I'm agree with you Slur ... there are the right tools for a work, not one do-all-works tool. I'm either agree with you when you say that modern processors are too complex to program them in native language; that is necessarely only when is needed maximum efficiency (and that is...

Hello lurk, you are right, as you can see http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/0,289893,sid9_gci212439,00.html but DOS offer the services: a process scheduler: only one process at time (not counting TSR) memory address space manager: full memory access disk management: file system...

Hello world!, telbij, I have nothing to say ... it is obvious that I'm not agree with you. bye_

Why are you so defensive? I only add that CBM Commdore 64 have a kernel. Everything that has an interface more evolute than simple binary or hex digit has a kernel and a shell. I STOP. byez_

Hello binaryDigit, yes, every OS have a kernel, big or small but if you can type some commands on a shell you have some software layers and one of them is the kernel. MSDOS kernel is msdos.sys and io.sys bye_

UH!, you are talking about Linux ... OK Linux (all derivatives) has problems ... Solaris (SunOS) too ... and, speak clearly, even Mac OSX have problems (not talking about Windows ... too many times he windows software is written bad, and if a system driver is written bad ...) Actually...

Hi Jove, you are a very expert and very very polite person ... Happy to meet you!. Again I'm not fully agree with you. To learn Algorithm and Data Structures is independant from learning a programming paradigm. Indeed many OOP have libraries suitable to deal with complex data...

Hi Jove, I'm not agree; you could learn Object Oriented Programming without to know others programming methods. You could apply OO even on Assembly (the language just don't have support for complicated OO structures). Why to learn "sequential" Analysis, Project, Programming if you could...

Hi Jove, you are right ... I was just telling my personal opinion about the languages I use. Just I don't want to engage a "religion war" about programming languages ... I think that there is the right tool fo the right work an programming languages are powerfull tools. About Java, I...

Do you mind to use the Java Programming Language? It is portable, fast, easy to use, very supported, free, .... C/C++ are useful to build CPU-intensive applications but aren't easy to mantain, debug .... Objective-C has many advantage over C/C++ but is "dead"; Java have the same advantage of...

Hi RacerX, I have a TinkPad too ... but now I don't use it, it could be useful if I install Rhapsody (I like NeXTStep very much). what is your ThinkPad model? What are the requirements to install and work with Rhapsody? Thanks_

this time I have found that the 475 have non video memory (VRAM) on board ... I don't connected yet the monitor to any of this Mac (I need an adapter) but I think that without memory I'll see nothing ... So the list of needed part is: 2 68040 1 PC ATX PowerSupply 4 VRAM SIMM Memory Modules...

Where I could find "Apple UNIX"? Your link is very interesting ... I found that the power supply inside the 6200 is burned ... I tried to excange it with the one inside the 630 and it worked so now I need a new power supply (I think that the better thing to do is to adapt a PC power supply)...

Hi dixonbm, the cluster is about processor power ... see beowulf at http://www.cacr.caltech.edu/beowulf/ The ability to mount remote filesystem is natural on many flavour of UNIX (partially even on Windows) so is the same thing on OS X You have to export a directory from a machine that...

HI all, from Linux perspective Kernel Panic means hardware or kernel error, Segmentation Fault means application or hardare error. So if you have many Kernel Panic and you are sure that your hardware is good than change the kernel (or wait for the update or recompile your kernel). bye...

I'm sorry but I had a lot of work to do last week ... The LC475 is a big hard problem ... because the CPU (68LC040) is bugged and installing linux could be difficoult. Still use System 7.5 is no way!!!, so until I'll find a good 68040 the LC 475 will gain dust ... (I'm sorry for that...

Hi ksv, no ... the effect is the same but the reason isn't that ... The file remain available to the application using it even if the file is much more greather than the memory available ... try to delete a video while you are watching it. Is the Kernel, FileSystem, etc... that use this...

Hi dixonbm, what ethernet card do you have on your Old Macs? I prefer non to use old System 6 or 7 ... my idea is to make an heterogeneous cluster of computer (PC, Mac, SGI, Sun, ...) so hard disk space isn't a very hard problem. I found a Linux distribution that claim to work on 68040...

I have Performa 6200, LC 630, LC 475. What may I do with them? (other than trash) I thinked about installing Linux ... ... anyone have a good 68040 to send to me? (Performa 475 have buggy 68LC040). Bye_
