In Amazing Computing, Vol 3. Num 4., there is an ad for AMIX from Lamplighter Software.
According to the ad, AMIX is:

	* Unix System V compatible
	* A multi-user, multi-tasking Unix workalike
	* Compatible with Amiga-DOS file structure
	* Access Amiga-DOS special functions such as sound and graphics
	* Priced less than Unix System V.

I called them up and according to the woman on the phone, it is two weeks from shipping,
will cost $395, and will allow Amiga applications to run under AMIX.  They are sending
me more information.

Does anyone else have any information on this?  It sounds like an interesting alternative.
