- We will be supplying some compiler tools after E2 ships.

-
- I suspect ATM will run fairly soon after E2 ships. We have already
- spent a bunch of time making sure that our internals look like Mac
- internals. I'm sure we've made some mistakes here and there, but I'll
- be surprised if we can't get ATM to go.

-
- It's not really that easy. Ram Doubler isn't too useful when only one
- app can un at a time and isn't necessary on systems with decent
- virtual memory subsystems (Windows NT, OS/2, Linux, NEXTSTEP, maybe
- Windows '95). Networking drivers have nothing to connect to until we
- implement networking and would be difficult to write without a
- thorough knowledge of Executor internals.

-
- I agree, but in order to do that we have to have enough engineers so
- that we can answer developer's questions. Right now we're being run
- ragged trying to keep on top of c.e.m.e., bugs@ardi.com,
- questions@ardi.com and still get BleedingEdge (and soon the beta)
- releases out quickly. When E2 is shipping we'll be able to double our
- staff which will actually more than double the amount of engineering
- hours we have because right now many engineering hours are spent on
- silly things like system configurations, backups, etc.
