	I was wondering the same thing.  The original spec's for the R-E
project, back in March '87, were for OS/9 to be one of the DOS's offered.
Since it *IS* offered by Peripheral Technology for their 68008 SBC, I had
hoped (sigh) that a port would be made to their R-E project hardware.  Is
there anyone close to, or in, P-T who can shed some light on this?
