Message-ID: <49944@nigel.ee.udel.edu> Date: 6 Apr 91 05:30:49 GMT Sender: mmdf@ee.udel.edu Lines: 13 I've always wondered exactly what people do with Minix. Some people use it as part of classes on operating systems. Other people like to do system programming with Minix. A few even run BBSs with Minix. I suppose some people even balance their checkbooks and write letters. I'ld like to conduct a little poll on what people do with Minix. E-mail me a list of things you do with Minix. I'll summarize to the mailing list once responses start to fall off. To start, here is what I use Minix for: 1. Terminal emulation and file transfer 2. Practicing my system programming skills Bill Bogstad
