| In the November 1988 issue of BYTE (CHAOS MANNER, pg.113) the

|
|"...you cannot run Unix with the Zenith Z-448 video board and the
|ZCM-1490 Flat Technology Monitor."
|
I think that this might better have been stated as
"... I couldn't figure out how to run Unix(tm) ..."
|"Unix doesn't really like or understand color, or at least that's my
|conclusion."
and this as
"I don't understand termcap."

| I assume that the person who made these comments was trying to run
|DOS under UNIX. Since I am trying to justify SCO XENIX as a viable
|operating system and my critics are likely to use this article against
|me, I would appreciate any comments supporting or denying these
|statements - preferably "real world" examples. Please post replies
