Message-ID: <5608@jarthur.Claremont.EDU> Date: 29 Mar 90 20:01:19 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Harvey Mudd College, Claremont, CA 91711 Lines: 12 Just how much of a subset of V7 unix is minix? I've worked with SunOS, and BSD unix for a while and have become quite used to them. If I install minix on my PC, will I just get frustrated because it is much more limited than I am used to? (forget the fact that my PC crawls in comparison to our Sequent). I'd rather find out now than after I spend hours backing up my system and installing a new one. -- Rob McKaughan rmckaugh@jarthur.claremont.edu
