- Executor doesn't do the type of device access that is necessary to
- play audio CDs. Executor knows how to read data off of data CD-ROMs
- (2048 byte sectors), but it doesn't know how to tell arbitrary CD-ROM
- players to play audio music. It's one device with two distinctly
- different command sets.
-
- Network and serial support is a much higher priority than the ability
- to play CD-ROMs.
