I don't see that much use for MINIX on the Amiga other than a learning 
experience for those who don't have access to a real UNIX(tm) system. I mean
what's the point, since our favorite machine already comes with a powerful
multitasking operating system with a large software base. I think MINIX is
pretty neat, but I think that it's so popular on the other systems, because
it actually provides muti-tasking (Something I never want to be without again)
on the systems that don't have it readily available. I think that if MINIX
for the Ami was actually released, I might get it just to play around with
it, however I don't see much use for it beyond that.
