Boy do I wish the TT was around when the Mega came out.  I was holding
my breath for a TT... but couldn't hold it that long.

About the TT and Unix...  For us (ordinary?) gem/tos users, how close to
Unix can we get on a TT running the Unix like packages available?

Mint/Bash comes to mind....  All I've used is MSH (Mark Williams Shell
from their compiler disk...)

Seems to me there's UUCP available, couldn't we run rn, send and msg
along with our favorite c compiler?  For me... thet's all I need.
(I think...  Back when the 8-bit came out I thought all I needed ead
Atari Basic....)
