The local Moto guy told me not to buy the 56K C compiler - that I should use assembler instead. I have some literature from a third party vendor that suggests that this compiler puts most of its data in Y memory. This could adversely affect efficiency of your code on some applications. A C compiler for this chip would present some interesting challenges. -- Jeff Carroll carroll@ssc-vax.boeing.com "Do you think I care? ... I have an infinite amount of money." -Bill Gates
