     For those who haven't kept up, the video interview became a telephone interview.  That 1 hour, 40 minute telephone interview is now on-line!  It is broken up into 4 parts of about 6-8 megs each (22-30 minutes for each part).

     Go to http://bios.tx0.org/ in order to download the .mp3's.  On the interview you will hear Bil, Andy, myself, Cameron Kaiser, and Keith
Henrickson.
     My thanks to Bil and Andy for giving a most enlightening look into Commodore Business Machines, and thanks to all who came up with questions for the two engineers.

        Good stuff!

If you have had trouble downloading the files due to "exceeded bandwidth", I have been told that the system resets itself every day at 4PM Pacific Time (00:00:00 UTC).  After that time, you'll be able to download again.
