Anyone have any more or better information? I suspect that the "UNIX workstation" would be more like a terminal to a Unix system. Remember the Blit?

I've heard of projects that put the Blit software into a ROM cartridge for the Atari without much trouble. -- # I resisted cluttering my mail with signatures for years, but the mail relay # situation has gotten to where people can't reach me without it.
