A few weeks ago I found out about the existance of a miniature
Unix for Macs and PCs called MINIX.  Apparently, the Mac version
looks just like a macintosh application to the Mac OS, but looks
just like a miniature Unix shell to users.  Furthermore, I was
lead to beleive that all of the Unix development utilities came
with the package (cc, vi, grep, etc).  The mail I read said this
all was available for around $100.

Does anyone know about this?  Where can I get one?  Was this all
just so much hooey?
