Contrary to Ken Shoemaker's note, XENIX on the AT does run in the protected 286 mode. This provides a several megabyte address space as well as memory management and protection, key items in a multitasking environment. SCO offers a XENIX which runs on an unprotected XT; I presume this can be made to run on an AT, though I don't know if its been done or why anyone would want to do it. Perhaps this was the start of the mis-information. Gordon Letwin Microsoft
