  If you ever use your PC for something other than as a host for
your transputers, you've probably wondered at one time or another
how you could take advantage of all that memory sitting there in
your transputer boards. Thanks to a fit of abulia suffered by
one of our programmers during his usual programming lucubrations, 
we have a program which configures this memory as a ramdisk for the PC.
As such, it becomes a recognized volume (typically D:) in the MSDOS 
repetoire, and responds to all uses as if it were an additional hard disk. 
Of course, it is much faster as it operates at transfer rates
in excess of 500 kilobytes/sec without any latency. The drawbacks
to using it are that it loses all data when power is shut off.
However, it can be very handy for numerous temporary data storage
requirements such a scratchpad area for compressing and decompressing
data during backups. 
 
  The program requires a CSA PART.4 (or B004) compatible root node 
operating at address 150H. It will configure itself to any network 
and make all memory  that it finds usable as part of the ramdisk. 
 
  The program can be obtained for shipping, handling and 
duplication costs subject to the usual non-proliferation 
restraints for commercial usage. To obtain the program, 
send a payment equivalent to ten US dollars to:
 
    Computer System Architects
    950 N. University Avenue
    Provo, Utah  84604
    801-374-2300   
 
Forms of payment accepted are almost anything convenient, i.e.
US $, money orders, checks, visa, mastercard, american express, 
foreign currency, international postal exchange certificates, 
IOUs  - possibly even bars of swiss chocolate or small tins 
of pate de fois gras.
 
Any questions about the program can be submited by Email to
rohran@adam.byu.edu.
