Right. I want to make sure it's understood that my half joking "could
have been but why" comment didn't mean I thought the EDP approach to
managing memory was faulty in some way, it's actually quite a briliant
and elegant way to manage a limited amount of memory in an embedded
application.
It's just that given the luxury of unlimited virtual memory on a PC,
it was much easier for me to do it a different way. That was good for
some things, not so good for others.
