Here's my two cents' worth of opinion. Can it run X11 ? Otherwise,
this UNIX amounts to nothing. 3 or 4 years ago, it would be okay;
like the MINIX OS, which is still pretty good for what its worth.
But these days, UNIX has gone WYSIWIG and X11 is the in-thing.

If this beast has no chance of ever getting X11 up and running, then,
I would say it has missed the mark. Well, can anyone tell me if this
thing can run X11 ?


General info:  X11 Release 4 consist of about 60 MB of source code
               (including all the libraries and trash) !
               UNIX has grown really FAT these days .......  sigh.
