Hello all.  I have a rather simple question. :-)

A person in New York claims to be running a public access unix
box on a Mac IIx under AU/X.  He also claims that the machine
will support 5-10 users <grin> and will run gcc soon.

Now for the questions....Can a IIx deal with 5-10 simultaneous
users (and a trailblazer running on another port)?  Also, I
thought GNU was boycotting apple products.  Wouldn't this
include AU/X?

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Chris
