How about the Mac?  Do you hate the Mac OS Andy? :-)  I am yet another COMMON
PERSON but I do hate DOS.  I wish Minix could be more powerful as a multi-user
system.  I want to run a BBS but don't want it to be yet another MS-DOS bbs.
I want an Unix board but cannot afford the money they want for Unix/Xenix.

By the way, I have an 12 Mhz AT clone and I am very reluctant to commit myself
on 286 Unix/Xenix.  I am afraid that the vendors will soon abandon supporting
286 Unix/Xenix as 386's become cheaper.

Any suggestion from the net?
