Has anybody seen the latest issue of Byte?  I was searching long and hard
for some redeeming social value in that magazine the other night when I
started to glance through Pournelle's column....  and the bastard basically
said that Un*x was good for nothing except poorly written multi-user 
databases.   His biggest complaint was that Un*x couldn't run a lot of his
MS-DOS applications well enough (two products were mentioned, I think).

Did he mention that Un*x doesn't do graphics or color??  I seem to recall
something about that but I cannot remember.
