Umm, I hadn't heard that they had the two operating systems running together.
I'm not sure the two would co-operate well, anyway.  The main thrust of AT&T
Unix is protection [more or less] and the main thrust of A-OS is real-time
response.  

I had heard that is was planned _at some point_.  Is it true that this is
working?  How does it perform?  Is it related to their Mach work? (that might
make a bit more sense)
