    Seth wrote and asked how to get a version of GNU Emacs hacked for the 
    Apollos.  GNU Emacs comes pre-hacked for the Apollos.  The major problem
    is that you can't dump a version with the Lisp pre-loaded because of 
    Apollo's brain-damaged memory management.

Brain-damaged?  That's a serious accusation.

Scott is wrong about this.  It's GNU Emacs's set of assumptions about memory
management that is brain-damaged.  There is nothing wrong with Apollo's
memory management.

In case you have forgotten, Gnu is Not Unix.
