My questions are more of a "user interface" nature. 1. Does this UNIX support windows (using something like the SysV support for the Blit terminal, perhaps), or is it like the Mac/Lisa UNIX with a purely text interface? 2. If not, does it at least provide ROM KERNEL access for user programs, the way Apple's Mac II UNIX is supposed to provide access to Quickdraw? 3. How much RAM does it require? 4. Does it require either the video slot or 1 MEG of CHIP. i.e., could it run in a 2000-and-1 in a 1000? I don't suppose I'll get answers right now, but it can't hurt to ask. -- -- Peter da Silva `-_-' ...!hoptoad!academ!uhnix1!sugar!peter -- Disclaimer: These U aren't mere opinions... these are *values*.
