I actually might feel similarly, but I'm not going to debate endlessly about it. Having said that, I won't answer any further AMIS posts in this thread if no one specifically raises more questions or points about it here.

In any case, even if one doesn't want AMIS, providing and/or using interrupt sharing protocol headers is still very useful. I think it's very important to point that out specifically (hence I'm repeating myself here).

Additionally, I don't agree with you about the "modern TSR's"; I'd in any case write "modern TSRs" here ;)
