I am posting this for a friend, please reply to him via e-mail

Ok, so maybe this has been asked about a million times, but...
Which 286 unix is good? Which is bad? And... If I call up 
microsoft and have them send an (expensive) copy, how tied to
pc hardware is it? (i.e. if I have a different hard disk controller,
will it still boot?) And lastly... Can I safely do a "sync" and
turn off the power at night, or is it best to leave it running
all the time?
