I don't know about the Delta, but I compiled emacs 20 on one of the old HP machines the FSF had, which I think used a 25MHz* 680x0, and it ran just fine (I used it every day; it took untold ages to compile though). I'd really be curious to see how the emacs 21 display engines fares on such a machine. -Miles * I mean `geech'; somebody please correct me if I'm wrong! -- Somebody has to do something, and it's just incredibly pathetic that it has to be us. -- Jerry Garcia
