It seems like a nice unit, I have it in a PC/AT and when I run Xenix,
Xenix turns it on somehow. The first time I found out about this, it
had been on all nite and was quite hot.

It is a joke, i supports just those devices listed in the catalog, 
it does not support 22V10 or GALs. In the manual it lists quite a
few chips (hundreds?), but the software does not support them with
the library shipped with CUPL. I called the company, if you want
the full library, it will only cost $1500. I have also had a hard
time getting the simulation's to run correctly, I must be doing
something wrong, but have not figured it out yet.

Has anyone tried PALASM? I called AMD and they said they would send it,
but it still has not arrived. Since it is free i can't complain, but i
wonder how long they take to ship stuff. 

Does anyone know of a PAL software package that works under SCO Xenix
286. I would love to be able to design and simulate a PAL under Xenix
before I have to boot DOS and run the pal burner since other people
are usually on the machine.

If you want to get the library let me know and i will get the phone
number.
