"MOS's claim to fame was/is that it functions as a "Gate Keeper", herding the data in packets for translation, thus cutting off the log jam and eleminating the need for massive hardware to process massive amount of digital data tranmitted over the air waves..."

The operating systems claim to fame is that it is highly portable....meaning that it can be tailored in short order with all its accoutrements to overcome the multitudes of translation between hardware(firmware) sets needed to push/co-mingle data from one computing platform to another.

e.Digial, through MOS can bring them together through one entity.

That aside, the current considerations being scrutinized are the key issues in front of MOS(445) that allows the dramatic reduction of RAM resource.

caching for both in and out( I/O ) a nonvolatile....this has been my focus for many years...and now we cross that bridge.

It's now up to a judge, where I feel that in itself...was worth the test of my perseverance. I get to see a challenge where for may companies it never happens.

I'd like to see positive results, however, if it's not to be....No complaints from me.
