[REBOL] Re: Wildman project - PS3?

hi all,
there is also a possibility that a RebolOS would not actually have a need
for such a thing as a "file".
It could very well be that a generic concept of data would suffice... Thus
there could be no difference between the (in RAM) data you are manipulating
within your app, a structured set of data and "files" and conversions of
those datasets into other "standard" format structures. They could all live
within the same persistent memory space in real time... no need to "save" or
load
your data... it just IS or IS NOT.
imagine you turn off your computer at any time (no need to even log off)...
you restart it and its in exactly the same state as when you shut it off...
no trick, no RAM dumping to disk to boot up beyond the hardware and
rebuilding of cached data like visible graphics and such.
Now I am not saying this is how the project is designed or foretold by Carl
S. but I would like any RebolOS to go beyond our current limited views of
what is
.
