I have noticed that very few people look at os9 as much as they
should.  Why isn't it that more companies and computer manufacturers
use os9?  The Atari ST runs os9 well (from what I here) and the only
place I here about the ST and os9 are from the germans who post.

Is there some major deficiency in this operating system that is 
present that causes more people to choose unix?? (other than the
modules and incompatible os calls shouldn't make one difference
when your compiling C !?)

?
