[net.micro.16k] Preliminary comments concerning Genix

perry@sbcs.UUCP (Perry S. Kivolowitz) (01/11/84)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
We  just  received a  Genix  (Berkeley 4.1c) distribution from National
Semiconductor  and  after completing our preliminary appraisal we would 
like to say:

	This is the most carefully layed out, packaged, ported, thought
through, well done Unix port  we  have  seen  in a long, long time. Our
hats are off, applause given, and addulations offered to Nat'l.

We will   let  the net know more as we get deeper into the installation
(which will still  be  non-trivial  since we have none of the supported
devices).

But  so far, as we said, this is the port other  vendors  have to catch
up to to beat.

			Well done Nat'l! (and send an mmu :-)

p.s. WE WANT TO HEAR from other sites running Genix. Send any comments
and such.
