I was at Altos using z80's with 64Kb of ram. I helped write an OS called AMEX. I then left to go work on a real unix port, which was the first port of unix onto a micro at company call Onyx. Do you remember those stupid shirts that said: "Altos goes hard with 8 inches". I would like to help out on this project if anything gets started. I built a house about 5 years ago. I did the multi source music every where thing. It hasn't worked in years. I would love to have control via a linux box. What is the biggest multi channel alsa device running today? 8x16 would be nice. 4 audio sources into 8 areas. -- Bob Knight [-w] the work option bk(a)minusw.com 925-449-9163
