If I wanted | a binary only system, I'd by XENIX, or System V, or PC/IX or some other | REAL UNIX system for my small computer. The idea is to work with a system | to which we can have the source, all the source. +--------------- Except that you don't get the C compiler used to compile MINIX originally. If Sep I/D is used by some MINIX programs, and the native compiler doesn't support split I/D, you're stuck, no? (Of course, you can always pay even more for the compiler that *does* support it.
