True. However I understand that the most interesting version only runs on CoCo3 - a model that has some MMU logic and has a minimum of 128K RAM. That's OS9 "level 2".

In other exciting news I changed the memory map according to the information from the "real source". What a difference a day makes! No more hanging. Hello the OS9 prompt. "DIR" works showing that the inter-process communication runs as it should. I have updated my web page and included a screen-shot. Now I'm waiting for the CPUs from Hong Kong.
