no, sorry. linux rules ;)

yes, why?

When I imagine just the display, the processor and the memory of the TI92+,
the TI92+
would be very powerful.
Compared to a simple Palm Pilot, they have almost the same power. So I think
it must
somehow be possible to port linux or something to the TI92+.
I think it's not possible because of the AMS, but I don't know. We would
need a kind of
multitasking system. Or something like like DOS would be enough. The problem
for my TCP/IP
stack is that I have a lot of problems with interrupts and all that stuff.
It's not possible to run the stack in background.
There are also a lot of problems with the timer because TCP/IP needs hundret
of timers
and maybe the user also wants to have one.

But I have already a concept how to solve this problem but I don't know if
it will work
