I had a PC a few years back. I also had MINIX. The computer was thrown
out, and MINIX started collecting dust. Now, I hav got myselfe a new
computer, and I am thinking of installing minix on it. So I would also
like to upgrade my old version. By the old version, I really mean old.
1.1 I think it is... very old anyway.

So, the questions. Is it worthwhile starting the upgrade process, or
                   should I shell out a $169 for the last version.
                   If upgrading is managable... How much HD space should
                   I set aside for minix (for upgrading).

Thanx for any kind of responce...

By the way. I do not have the original diskettes, it was when limited
copying for educational puposes were allowed. And three of us bought
MINIX together, doing a OS cource.
