Stromasys without doubt, in order to recoup costs AND make a profit will
probably have a fee.

(They may even have commissioned sales, suggest not everyone line up at
once for that job.)

Hi,

On user volumes vs. private volumes...

Denys  writes, astoundingly:

MPE/iX.

Several people called him to task, and his  reply:

> Yes, volume sets are functional, this is pure MPE and that  means
volume
> sets, XM, volutil, etc, works just like on the  3000.

along with Gille's incorrect later leniency to Denys' post  may
have left some wondering.  (The obvious other problems in  the
second post are not comment on here...this is just about  user
volumes / private volumes).

Thinking of that "/" in the last  line above as "divide"
made me realize:

for a first  approximation: user volumes / private volumes = 1

So...

Of  *course* MPE/iX has "private volumes" ... they're called "user
volumes".
