  I am rather new to netland and this meeting, so please excuse these
rather dull questions.  And it might be best to mail me any responses to
my questions rather than clog the list with the answers everyone else
knows.

  First) What is the name of Dr.  Tannenbaums book that is the companion
of the minix os, and where would I get it (order it).

   2) I am assuming minix is based on U*IX (quick ain't I). What
      U*IX is it based on?

   3) Where can the source for minix be bought, and for how much?

   4) What ports of minix besides the PC have been marginally successful,
      or completly successful for that matter.



   Thanks for all you put up with this message, and to all who respond.
Minix looks like something I've been wanting to run into for a long
    time.
