     I just ordered the hardback version of the manual form B. Dalton here
     in St. Louis, Missouri and it is going for $48.95.  They don't carry
     the paperback version, or so they say.  
  
     The machine I use at work runs BSD 4.3 so I figure it would be a good
     idea to get Minix for my 1040st at home.  How close is Minix to 
     BSD unix?  Also, it there a FORTRAN compiler availble for Minix?
